Quaker Ranter Reader

Essays From The Website Of Martin Kelley Aka The Quaker Ranter

BY MARTIN KELLEY
This book is a collection of posts from one of the most popular Quaker bloggers. "The true gift, to me, of Martin's ministry through Quaker Ranter is the opening of a space for people to have these conversations about their experiences. What's wonderful is how the conversation frequently focuses on how people approach naming their self-understanding, and then their subsequent experience of how well - or not - that self-understanding relates back to the local and wider Quaker communities." - Chris Mohr

Spirit Rising

Young Quaker Voices

EDITED BY ANGELINA CONTI, CARA CURTIS, WESS DANIELS, JOHN LOMURIA, EMMA CONDORI, HARRIET HART ET AL.
Spirit Rising: Young Quaker Voices celebrates, critiques, questions, and reflects on the Quaker faith experience. Writing and visual art by teenage and young adult Quakers from around the world and across the theological and cultural spectrum of the Religious Society of Friends give readers a window on the spiritual riches and witness these Friends offer. The contributors in this volume challenge and inspire, as they witness to and celebrate Quakerism as it has been, as it is, and as it could yet be. The voices here come together in a symphony, cacophonous but also deeply resonant. Listen and you will hear that their Spirit - here called by many names - is undeniably rising.
