Search me: Chris Rose’s Thought for the week
‘Having everything mapped out is a great support, but surely that’s not us.’
I was recently at my Area Meeting’s fellowship day. While we were there, some visitors arrived and a Friend showed them around. He said they’d asked what Quakers believe. He didn’t say how he answered, but I suspect they would have got slightly different answers from each Friend present. Would we have avoided the confused and vague explanations so often given, and what does ‘That of God in everyone’ actually mean anyway?
