Howard Thurman

The Mystic As Prophet

BY LUTHER SMITH

Brief Description:
When Howard Thurman spoke, he filled the entire room with compassion, truth, keen intellect, and joy. To be in his presence was to experience the drama of life itself-with all its attending conflicts-and to be carried beyond these realities to the rcality of a gracious God whose will is life and wholeness. Howard Thurman's close relationship to Quakers dates back to 1929 when he began independent study at Hav erford College with Rufus Jones. He first discovered Jones through his book, Finding the Trail of Life. "When I finished [the book] I knew that if this man were alive, I wanted to study with him," wrote Thurman in his autobiography. A biography of this great man.
