I like to joke that I attended my first Quaker meeting because the Belief-O-Matic told me to; but now, ten years later, I am certain that that silly internet quiz was really just the first of many divine nudges guiding me on my spiritual journey...
I think I came to Quakerism for all the wrong reasons; I hope I’ve stayed for the right ones.
My Quaker story begins a few years before I was born....
I know now that Quakers refer to people who walk in the door as “Seekers.” I’m not sure that always fits.
I stumbled into my first Meeting almost by accident.
When I first came to Quakerism about 25 years ago, I was looking for a spiritual community that would accept, if not welcome, the theology I had grown into and the glimpses I had experienced of the Beyond.
