The Presence In The Midst

The Presence In The Midst

The Presence In The Midst

Swarthmore Lecture 2009

BY PETER ECCLES

Brief Description:
How do we make sense of and respond to our experience of the world around us? How do we discern well together? By considering profound questions such as free will and the place of life in the universe, Peter J. Eccles casts an illuminating and engaging light on a key element of Quaker practice. He emphasizes the profound importance of discernment to Quaker experience. "The quality of the experience when we come together in meeting for worship depends on each one of us. The Presence in the Midst is always with us, ready to sustain and support us. It calls on each of us to rise above our weakness and live out our true self."

Britain Yearly Meeting 2009 156 PP. Paper
