New Light – 12 Quaker Voices

The "voices" of this book belong to Quakers who for the past six years have been running a series of open meetings for spiritual seekers, and have spoken from their own experience on the topics covered by this book. All are well known in Quaker circles and beyond. Jennifer Kavanagh has published two previous books, most recently The World is our Cloister, and has spoken about her faith on radio and television.
