Overview
Speaking from the traditional Quaker claim of inward knowledge of Christ the Light, the author shows her accord with early Friends' writings and the Scriptures they affirmed. Promptings arising from daily readings and personal interactions provide the starting point for many of the book's essays. Other genres, including interviews and dialogues, also present a perspective that largely has been lost to modern-day forms of the faith. Though not allowing authoritative texts to displace the prerogative of Spirit, the author often cites both Scriptures and seventeenth-century Friends to support her themes with their good sense and authority, and thus she demonstrates the unity of the faith from century to century, from millennium to millennium.
