Answering that of God: discovering Spirit within by Peter Parr
Quakers speak of 'that of God in everyone'. But what does this expression mean? And what would be the implications if we held an awareness of the Divine in everyone all of the time? What if we tried genuinely to live this belief day by day. minute by minute, in the encounters we have with our family, with our friends, at work, and in society at large?
Answering that of God is an invitation and a challenge to explore these questions. In seven sections it examines Who we are; reflects on the spiritual values that lie behind the Quaker witness to Truth, Equality, Simplicity and Peace; encourages us to Let our Lives Speak, and finally, in Remembering, urges us to find daily ways of prompting ourselves to do so. Each sections offers scope for reflection.
Revised second edition, published 2026, is available from the Quaker bookshop at Friends House, London (opposite Euston station), priced at £3 per copy. (ISBN number 9781068663130.)
