'What is Quakerism?' can be a difficult question to answer, especially when Quakers today struggle to find a shared religious language. In this book, Mark Russ answers this question from a personal perspective, telling his story of trying to make sense of Jesus within the Quaker community. Through this theological wrestling emerges a 'Quaker Shaped Christianity' that is contemporary, open and rooted in tradition. In reflecting on how to approach the Bible, the challenges of Universalism, and the key events of the Jesus story, this book offers a creative, inspiring and readable theology for everyone who has wondered how Christianity and Quakerism fit together.

I was lucky enough to read a pre-publication copy of this excellent book. It brings together personal reflection and a broad range of theological resources to how explore the Quaker tradition and Christianity as a whole might relate to one another.

Mark Russ has given us a lovely little book that is part spiritual memoir and part spiritual invitation. He warmly invites into explore the bible and Jesus and their relationship to Quaker faith and its practice. Enlightening!
