| "Thee, Hannah!" scold Mother, Grammy Welsh, and sister Sally as
Hannah struggles to grow up as a good Quaker girl in Philadelphia just
before the Civil War. It seems that nine-year-old Hannah is always
getting into scrapes. She doesn't want to listen to "old Spotty," but
it's so hard to wear a plain bonnet that pinches her ears, and a plain
dress with no lace! Hannah yearns for the flowered bonnets ad hoop
skirts her friend Cecily wears, and often sneaks away to "dress up."
Catch a glimpse of Quaker life as Hannah and her family go to
Meeting and to market, host a gathering of Friends, enjoy ice skating
and other pastimes. Join Hannah as she helps bring an escaped slave
woman and her sick son to safety. Will Hannah ever understand the
value of plain dress, and learn to be contented as a Friend? Find out
in the picture storybook for young readers. | | | | Key to the Prison | View shopping basket | | by Louise A. Vernon | |

George Fox, an English religious leader and the founder of the Society
of Friends, also called Quakers, lived during that time. Twelve-
year-old Tommy Stafford and his sister, Celia, witness the violence and
persecution brought on by the words and ways of Fox. His courage,

| As a Quaker preacher, minister, and missionary in the late 17th
century, William Penn was imprisioned for his faith many times. After
being falsely accused of treason, Penn was forced into hiding. During
those three years of imposed solitude, he had time to think, reflect,
and reevaluate. Some Fruits of Solitude is the product of
that time alone. In it, Penn distills the essence of his spiritual
idealism, combining it with practicality and commons sense.
Translated into today's English by Eric K. Taylor, Penn's wisdom is
even more accessible to the contemporary reader. Penn's voice can once
again be heard in its simplicity and timelessness-sharing his fruits of
solitude. "I can hardly wish you anything better than seriously
considering what you do with your time. Using time well is the
greatest wisdom and work of life." -William Penn. Copyright 2003. | | | | A Declaration on Peace: In God's People the World's Renewal Has Begun | View shopping basket | | by Douglas Gwyn, George, Hunsinger, Eugene F. Roop, and John Howard Yoder | |

Church Of The Brethren
| A call from Mennonites, Quakers, Church of the Brethren, and the
Felloship of Reconciliation to all Christians to renew discussions
about peace, war, militarism, and justice. Douglas Gwyn, George
Hunsinger, Eugene F. Roop, and John Howard Yoder, editors, offer an
ecumenical dialogue on the morality of war, grounded in a biblical
vision common to all Christian communions. This book declares that
peacemaking is essential to Christian discipleship. It is the vocation
of the church as a whole. Moving beyond the traditional debate around
"pacifism," this statement seeks dialogue concerning a renewed vision
of the entire purpose of God in the world. Copyright 1990. | | | | The Lord's Supper: Believers Church Perspectives | View shopping basket | | by Dale R. Stoffer | |

| For the first time in a single volume, Dale R. Stoffer gives an overview
of the history, theology, and practice of the Lord's Supper in denominations
that share the common heritage of believers baptism. The essays are about
sharing the bread and cup, foot washing, and the love feast. Several scholars
examine the witness of Scripture and of church history on communion. A series
of chapters describe the current practice and theology of the Lord's Supper
in denominations as varied as Baptist, Quaker, Seventh-Day Adventist, and
African Methodist Episcopal. "This conversation opens well the new study
needed to free our understanding of the meaning of the Lord's Supper from the
shackles imposed on it by the 'substance' debates among the official churches
during the reformation."--John Howard Yoder, Professor of Theology, University
of Notre Dame. | |
