Mysticism And Activism

Learning From John Woolman

BY MICHAEL BIRKEL

Brief Description:
"First we'll look at some passages from [Woolman's] writings to see how he finds the spiritual life to be a unity, an integrated life of both inward experience and outward action for social change. Next, we can turn our attention to the resources he finds for this integrated spiriutal life. Then we'll see how he takes the language he uses to describe his inward experience of worship and applies it to his outward labors for a just human society....Finally we can consider how his work might inspire us to a unified life, one in which service is an expression of worship and worship is a form of action." -The author, from his opening statements
