"So what do you believe?" It’s the question Quakers are always asked first and the one they find hardest to answer, because they don’t have an official list of beliefs. And Quakerism is a religion of doing, not thinking. They base their lives on equality and truth; they work for peace, justice and reconciliation; they live adventurously. And underpinning their unique way of life is a spiritual practice they have sometimes been wary of talking about. Until now. In What Do Quakers Believe? Geoffrey Durham answers the crucial question clearly, straightforwardly and without jargon. In the process he introduces a unique religious group whose impact and influence in the world is far greater than their numbers suggest. What Do Quakers Believe? is a friendly, direct and accessible toe-in-the-water book for readers who have often wondered who these Quakers are, but have never quite found out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply a brilliant read, that explains what makes Quakers tickReviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 April 2019
Verified Purchase
Geoffrey Durham has a way of writing very simply, about something with the potential to be very a complex and emotive subject. Religion after all has been the cause of conflict for centuries. But in this short book, he very ably describe the joy many find in being a Quaker.
Durham avoids using Quaker jargon and explains very compellingly what makes Quakers different. As a Quaker myself, I also found the book strangely reassuring. Buy a copy and see for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars A cute, simplistic guide to QuakerismReviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 April 2019
Verified Purchase
When I first started looking into Quakerism I quickly came across Geoffreys past books. He always talks and writes about Quakerism like no other. Maybe it’s because his passion shines through in them, or that I find him extremely honest and clear. There are LOTS of books on the subject but I have always found others unnecessarily complicated. This book totally lives upto his usual brilliant style of writing and explaining Quakerism. I would say i now have a very good knowledge of Quakerism, but even I still struggle when friends ask what it’s all about. This will now be my go to book to recommend. A little, cute guide ideal for newcomers or Quakers alike. I look forward to further books from this author.
