A testimony of divine grace: Quakers and same-sex marriage
Quakers have always diligently written tracts, pamphlets and books, including those about sexuality. Work to produce Towards a Quaker View of Sex began in 1957, and it was published in 1963.

“Now there were many old people who went into the chapel and looked out at the windows, thinking it a strange thing to see a man preach on a hill, and not in their church, as they called it; whereupon I was moved to open to the people that the steeple-house, and the ground whereon it stood were no more holy than that mountain…" (George Fox, Firbank Fell, 1694)

Navigating uncertain waters: Covid-19 and inequality
Policies that show generosity towards asylum seekers make some European politicians very nervous, which is why some of what we have seen in Europe in the last few days is so remarkable.

Locked up in lockdown: the Quaker prison chaplains reaching out
There I was, on 29 February 2020, with around 20 Quaker prison chaplains and other Friends who work in the field of criminal justice, at the Quakers in Criminal Justice conference.

Worship in lockdown: finding new forms of community
For a year and a half I had been working for Quakers in Britain, in a project seeking out and sharing ways Quakers can have simpler meetings.

Friends reunited: how online Quaker meetings are bridging boundaries
Like many Quaker meetings, my own – Forest Hill Meeting in London – has moved into the virtual sphere. One of the unexpected delights of this is seeing the faces of old friends, many of whom who moved away years ago, appearing on our screens. Seamlessly, they become part of the life of the meeting again.
