Atonement In Early Quaker Experience

BY DOUGLAS GWYN

Brief Description:
"The main subjects are the Seekers of the 1640s and their forebears, and the Friends who catalyzed many Seeker themes into a dynamic, transformative movement. Gwyn's excellent study demonstrates the unique charisma of early Friends, their ability to hold opposing forces and ideas in creative tension, thus unleashing great spiritual energy. By comparison modern seekers, including many of today's Friends, are experiencing some of the same stages Gwyn identifies in those three centuries years earlier, but without embodying the tension." - Martha Paxson Grundy
