Quaker Theology

In this essential overview of practical Quaker theology, Buck takes everyday issues in the Christian life and examines the particulars of how Quakers address those issues today. In doing so, this work extends the Quaker voice into the 21st century, converging Quaker tradition within our modern cultural context. Buck artfully integrates old ideas from Christian history into new movements of the Holy Spirit. In doing so, she examines the daily lives of Spirit-led Quakers, from eating habits to scriptural approaches, in order to evaluate effectively what it means to be an Evangelical Friend today.
