Klappentext
**In this accessible introduction to the Quaker tradition, Stuart Masters traces its roots in seventeenth-century English Puritanism and the teachings of founder George Fox, highlighting the contributions of early leaders such as James Naylor and Margaret Fell, the latter reflecting Quakerism's progressive views on gender.**Masters then describes how the movement has developed and changed over time, producing a number of different expressions in the world today.
The Quaker Faith illuminates the enduring shape and orientation of Quakerism and explores the challenges posed by this spiritual path, including those situations in which the Quaker community has failed to live up to the standards of its stated values and beliefs. The book also highlights the fascinating connections between Quakerism and the practices of other Christian churches and faith traditions and assesses what Quakers have to offer in a modern world where people are searching for spiritual meaning and yearning for a society founded on peace, racial reconciliation, gender equality, and ecological justice.
