Today's offering has been selected by Nicola James, Head of Listening Service. Today's reflection is by John Woolman, the American Quaker abolitionist. His quote (26.61) comes from a section on 'The Universal Light' in Quaker Faith and Practice, a collection of Quaker writings throughout the ages. There is a principle which is pure, placed in the human mind, which in different places and ages hath different names; it is, however, pure and proceeds from God. It is deep and inward, confined to no forms of religion nor excluded from any where the heart stands in perfect sincerity. In whomsoever this takes root and grows, of what nation soever, they become brethren. John Woolman, 1762 This article was published on 2024-06-24
