Convinced Quakerism

2003 Walton Lecture

BY BEN PINK-DANDELION
"I want to think about convincement, how we may view this term in our Yearly Meetings today, and how understanding its original sense could help us regain a language or a frame in which to better describe some of our experience. I want to begin by looking at the profile of our Quakerism, then the nature of early Quaker language in relation to experience, followed by some reflections on the use of language in relation to experience. I'll end with how I think all this may help us revitalise our part of the Quaker movement." The author, from his Introduction.

The Dynamics Of Membership In Quaker Meeting - Php 371

BY TOM GATES
"In Quaker faith and practice, the individual and the meeting are in a dynamic, mutually supportive, and reciprocal relation." In this essay Tom Gates examines many of the factors affecting the relationship between the Seeker and the Meeting, before and during membership. While a person may be drawn to Quakerism for a particular reason, over time the individual's needs, and the way in which the Meeting community is able to meet them, change. Tom Gates examines the many aspects of membership and the obligations it may impose on us, individually and as a faith community.
