📣 New video! After thoroughly enjoying @ericanela.bsky.social new book Zealous, I had to ask her to come on to talk about it! What followed was without question the most hilarious discussion I’ve had about Early Quaker history I’ve ever had… AND THAT IS SAYING A LOT!

📣 New Video! I was SO excited to be joined by the absolute LEGEND that is Ben Pink Dandelion to talk Quaker History. We talk all things 18th Century today. Quietism, Plain dressing and transatlantic Quakerism. Plus my overreaction to one of Ben’s answers…

This week, we’re asking the question “Do Quakers read the Bible?” The answer is not a simple 'yes' or 'no', but a journey into a faith that has been both wounded and liberated by the very same pages.

Do Quakers Read the Bible?
One of the most asked questions about Quakers is “Do they read the Bible?” The answer is not a simple 'yes' or 'no', but a journey into a faith that has been both wounded and liberated by the very same pages.

The word [Quaker] can often invoke images of a quaint and peculiar people from the past, with men in distinctive hats and women wearing bonnets. Today, however, a Quaker is more likely to be a young African Evangelical Christian, or a middle-aged American humanist who practices Buddhist meditation.

I do think Quakers can learn a lot from PR and marketing, particularly when it comes to “brand” awareness. In general as a group we undervalue and under resource comms compared to others. Have a watch if you’re interested in what I mean by all that and why we shouldn’t be squeamish about it!

I've officially signed a book contract with @psupress.bsky.social for my manuscript, Quaker Jeremiad, a literary history of Quaker agrarian writing in early America.

I'm very grateful to Tristan Bates and the rest of that editorial team for their support. Looking forward to getting this in print!

New Video! Why are Quaker populations in the West struggling? I argue it has nothing to do with our theological diversity, and a lot more to do with the popular culture's focus on individualism, creating a fear of commitment. Find out more!
