The Spiritual Deepening Library materials are designed for participants of all ages and stages in their spiritual journey. Participants engage in activities, discussions, role-plays, spiritual practices, art and music exercises, and worship sharing. The content has been compiled and developed by Friends throughout the U.S. and Canada and includes materials drawn from high quality existing curricula and resources, as well as newly developed activities.
Silence and Expectant Waiting
The Quaker experience of worship, silent waiting, and vocal ministry
The Light, Seed, Christ Working in Us
The experience of being led by the Inner Guide

Becoming Patterns and Examples
"Be patterns, be examples," advised George Fox. This topic explores how Quakers put faith into practice.
Living into Wholeness
Many of us know that the Beloved Community is “not yet,” because we see the trauma of white supremacy and free-market colonialism playing itself out across the globe. But can we co-create and Live Into Wholeness together?
Aging, Death, and Dying
Growing old, even when that means facing physical or other changes, can help us focus on what is essential.
In addition to exploring the Spiritual Deepening activities and exercises, we recommend that small groups incorporate worship and personal check-ins into their time together, in order to enrich the experience of spiritual connection.
