Borders Meeting, which includes Quakers from Germany, France, the Benelux countries, Switzerland, Ireland and UK, was held in the youth academy at Walberberg near Cologne on 7-9 September. The subject for our gathering was: ‘The Testimony of Equality.’ There is only one fundamental testimony for Quakers. There is that of God in all persons; therefore, it is an inescapable truth that to God all peoples are equal. This belief has led Friends throughout the years to work for a more just society. Where do we stand today?
"If you truly want to be led you must put yourself in a position that allows following" (PYM)
Though written within a Quaker and Christian context, this book can be used by anyone of any religious faith or secular inclination. The only requirement is a desire to follow, to be guided by, to align with the richness of the ineffable, which this book calls "the Way". This book seeks nothing less than to aid readers in aligning their lives with the same power and richness that animated the life of Jesus of Nazareth.
