Living the Quaker Way

Discover the Hidden Happiness in the Simple Life



The long-held priorities of Quakerism--simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality--are so universally attractive and so urgently needed in today's world,it begs the question, Is there a little bit of Quaker in all of us?

A Publishers Weekly “Top 10 in Religion” selection.
 
“This is nothing less than the gospel itself…a much-needed book.”
—FR. RICHARD ROHR, OFM, Center for Action and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico
 
Philip Gulley invites us into a bracing encounter with the rich truths of Quakerism—a centuries-old spiritual tradition that provides not only a foundation of faith but also vision for making the world more just, loving, and peaceable by our presence.
 
In Living the Quaker Way, Gulley shows how Quaker values provide real solutions to many of our most pressing contemporary challenges. We not only come to a deeper appreciation of simplicity, peace, integrity, community, and equality, we see how embracing these virtues will radically transform us and our world.
 
Living the Quaker Way includes a 30-day spiritual practice that applies the Quaker tradition of Queries.
