Quaker ways of knowing
4 May 2022, Online
Do Quakers have a unique understanding of religious knowledge? In this session, we will consider whether religious knowledge is possible, and why, from a historical perspective, that has become a question that needs to be asked. Then we will look at Quaker ways of knowing, with special attention to how Quakers have grounded religious knowledge experientially.
Participants will have time in small groups to consider how their own religious and theological views are informed by their experiences, including not only religious experiences but other kinds of experience as well, such as aesthetic, ethical, and relational experiences.
The hope is that participants will gain not only a greater appreciation of how Quakerism offers a distinctive approach to religious knowledge, but also new insight into the relationships between their religious views and their own lived experience.
