Engaging Scripture

Reading The Bible With Early Friends

BY MICHAEL BIRKEL, FOREWORD BY BASIL PENNINGTON

Brief Description:
In Engaging Scripture, Michael Birkel invites readers into the meditative way early Friends read the Bible through a close study of early Quaker writings. His own experience encourages contemporary readers to enter scripture through this contemplative Quaker approach, which-like the ancient practice of lectio divina-challenges the reader to be not only informed, but transformed.
