Yours caught my eye as I am an ex-fundamentalist (Pentecostal) whose path beyond literalism was begun with serious doses of Yoder and Anabaptism, centrally a 10 year stint with a Mennonite intentional community (Reba Place Fellowship/Church). At the end of that anabaptist period, I became a liberal nontheistic Quaker. <br /><br />While with RPF/C, I also dabbled in neo-Thomism. OK, more than dabbled, I considered myself a synthesizer of anabaptism, pentecostalism, social movement theory, and neo-thomism. I still think there is fruitful area of work there and you seem to be contributing something to that conversation.<br /><br />My own interests now are more wholly secular, but my commitment to Quakerism and through them to ecumenical and interfaith work, position me to speak to both sides, secular and religious.<br /><br />I expect I will purchase this book and hope to incorporate its ideas into my perspective. Thank you for your witness here.leftistquakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10452322863147639718noreply@blogger.com
