Primitive Christianity Revived, Again

I'm re-reading The Plain Reader by Scott Savage and am wondering if anyone has back issues of Plain magazine that would part with, or if anyone could scan a couple issues for me?? I'm currently a seeker and have been leaning toward a more simple plain life for the past couple years. I'd enjoy connecting with other Plain Conservative Quakers. Thank you. Beverly

I too have that book. It is such a gift! I have been searching for information on the magazine myself but to no avail. Whether on the internet or other sources it seems to have gone away... I too am being drawn to the Plain Conservative path. I would love to discuss it with you. Blessings dear friend.
Beverly,
I've been in touch with some folks who might have some copies of "Plain" for thee. I'll stay in touch about what I find out. The michiganquakers.org has a library and may be able to help in thy search. I doubt that any issues of "Plain" will be found on line...electronics are not Scott's preferred way to communicat, but I'll do what I can. 'Stay tuned.
Faye
Thank you Faye. I will look forward to your correspondence.

Looks like a beautiful magazine, Can someone post scans for people to view? I can help scan images if need be.
While scanning copies and posting them online might be useful to many who would like to read them, I recall that in the printed magazine, there were requests from the publisher (Scott Savage) that the magazine not be posted online. Especially since it would be protected by copyright, it would probably be best not to do this without permission from the owner.
This is a good point. One might write to Scott to see if he has copies. I think he is listed in the Wider Fellowship of Conservative Friends booklet.
Thanks for mentioning this Geoffrey. Faye, if you are able to contact Scott, maybe he would be interested in making copies for sale on an as needed basis. I think there are many folks who would be interested in reading Plain again.
Hi Faye. I'm wondering if you found out anything about Plain Magazine and if it is possible to buy/copy etc back issues? Thanks, Beverly Adams
Did anyone find out if Scott had copies left over? I am reading the Plain Reader and would love to read the rest of the magazine.

I wish I could have homeschooled, but here it was not permitted to me by law. School choice is only permitted to two parent families that can afford for one to stay home. I don't know what clothing is like where you are but it should be…

Thanks for your gratulations and your input. Homeschooling is by virtue of our new curriculum very hard, something I even as a teacher am very critical about. I think that most people do not understand that there are many pros to it and think it is…

Called Out, Called In: Maggie Harrison's Loving Challenge

There is a prophet in our midst, and her name is Maggie Harrison. Rousing many like fire, making my skin itch at being possibly excluded from this club that I don't even belong to, really (when asked if I am a Quaker, I always respond, 'Not yet.'), but want to think I can put on and off like so much-- clothing?And, nakedness. Taking off the mantle of Religious Identity, making space for the un-knowingness of living INTO something, removing armor and scaffold and hard won (or not so hard won)…See More

First of all, Mazel Tov!  Prayers to your pregnancy, may it be a healthy, happy event in your life. With my children, I have raised them with my beliefs, explained why I dress Plain for worship, and leave them with what I have taught in hopes…
