Bill Smith Comment by Bill Smith on 1st mo. 26, 2010 at 11:51am
I am currently leading a 4 week series of discussions on "Quaker Theology". There has been a positive response to this discussion. By the way we do not all agree, Surprise! Surprise!
Topics Have been Central Belief (Inward Light), Authority (Scriptures, Spirit, Reason, and Tradition) I usually quote my father on this topic. If we hold any of these to be "infallible" as an authority we usually end up in trouble. The thrid topic was Gospel order How we function as an "organization"/community. next week we will be discussing "Christ" and the evolution of Quaker Diversity.
It is very important that we have these discussions often in our Society if for no other reason than to keep us on our toes. Being on your toes gives balance and allows adaptation to pressures. (Speaking as a former wrestler and wrestling coach)

They read Barclay??? WOW! I'm impressed!

uh...I'm not sure that at my meeting too many people would even know who Barclay is...

I was motivated to actually send out invites after reading this thread on Belief-o-Matic on the JesusRadicals forum (I posted a response at the end). We have people taking this quiz, getting "Quaker" as a result, checking Barclay to confirm and wondering where to go next. A lot of meetings wouldn't know what to do with them. Some find QuakerQuaker. What do we tell them?

Daily Bible Reading: Deuteronomy 28 and Galatians 6

Deuteronomy 28 – If you obey the voice of God by observing the law, you will prosper.  Disobedience will bring destruction (28:45). The big word in this chapter, as in others, is if or “provided” or “so long as.”  This is the great condition that hangs over the redemption people.  The word does not disappear under the new covenant either as we sometimes like to think.  “You are my friends if you do as I command you.” (John 15:14).  The convincing power of the gospel is not in its syllogistic…See More

Hello Evangelical Friends. I have just de-listed from the Liberal Quakers. I pray that they still know me. But I pray that I will know you.

Where ministry meets livelihood

Listen to this post: http://www.turtleboxstories.com/audio/whereministrymeets.mp3 Yesterday was sandwiched between a traditional Bible study and a new women's group on astrology and archetypes. Could I have chosen anything more different? One is an ongoing study of Luke that my mother initiated in December with, mostly, retired women. I felt called to join because when else might I have the chance to do a Bible study…See More
