A home for an exploration of moving to Quaker music. The authors are not Quakers by convincement, converted because it was the best-reasoned / best-explained / best-argued path, but because it was the most natural path: the journey we were already on led us to meet with Friends.

A Manifesto

Welcome. A new start. A new...something.

(I'm rubbish at P.R., so please excuse this momentary lack of focus and poor attempt at diversion with glamour and glitzy buzz-words.)

This is Quaker By Journey.
[A blog about having been something else and becoming something Quaker. We want this to be a record of how we meet with Quaker friends, Quaker tradition and Quaker customs.]

This is the manifesto, because we've got to start somewhere. There's going to be a need for some kind of direction and intention in this journal; it wil help us keep on topic.

We're going to talk about our experiences and how we understand things. That doesn't mean that we're right, or that we have the accepted view on things. It's an enormous weight off my mind to say that, despite the content of this blog, we're not orthodox or espousing one sole way to do things.

If you disagree, you know where the Comment button is. Tell us. Explain why. All that interactive stuff that goes on in Blogland is welcome here. I suspect we'll be wrong before too long and need some assistance...

Anthing else? Ask below...
