A Quaker Travels The World

They followed in the tradition of travelling Quakers, visiting others of like mind and heart, but they also learned about how different other Quakers can be, and made unexpected discoveries about themselves.

A Guide To The Modern Religious Life
BY JENNIFER KAVANAGH The dedicated religious life of monks and nuns has a fascination for many of us - at a distance. We live in the world we have, and it's hard to figure out how to do it in a God-filled way. The World is Our Cloister, written by Friend Jennifer Cavanaugh, is about the new religious life. It is a guide to living the devotional life, not behind the walls of a monastery, but in the world. It's about engagement in the world as well as withdrawal, the balance between a life of action and one of contemplation; how to be in the world but not of it. It is also a guide to the mystical experience at the heart of all religion..
