Spiritual Practice - from Eastern
Hills Ministry and Counsel:
The following query from
Aotearoa/New Zealand Yearly Meeting challenges both the Christ-centered and
non-Christ-centered.
The
Religious Society of Friends is rooted in Christianity, and has
always
found inspiration in the life and teachings of Jesus. How do
you
interpret your faith in the light of this heritage? Are you following
Jesus’
example of love in action? Are you learning from his life of
sacrifice
the reality and cost of obedience to God? How does his
closeness
to God challenge and inspire you in the way you live?
