Synopsis
Since its first publication in 1941, A Testament of Devotion, by the renowned Quaker teacher Thomas Kelly, has been universally embraced as a truly enduring spiritual classic. Plainspoken and deeply inspirational, it gathers together five compelling essays that urge us to center our lives on God's presence, to find quiet and stillness within modern life, and to discover the deeply satisfying and lasting peace of the inner spiritual journey. As relevant today as it was a half-century ago, A Testament of Devotion is the ideal companion to that highest of all human arts-the lifelong conversation between God and his creatures. I have in mind something deeper than the simplification of our external programs, our absurdly crowded calendars of appointments through which so many pantingly and frantically gasp. These do become simplified in holy obedience, and the poise and peace we have been missing can really be found. But there is a deeper, an internal simplification of the whole of one's personality, stilled, tranquil, in childlike trust listening ever to Eternity's whisper, walking with a smile into the dark.", Since its first publication in 1941, A Testament of Devotion, by the renowned Quaker teacher Thomas Kelly, has been universally embraced as a truly enduring spiritual classic.

    • God centered, expansive yet simple, cosmic yet down to Earth in its inspiration.

      For a dedicated spiritual student, Thomas R. Kelly's book is a genuine classic. It is short, to the point and clear with feeling. A basically Quaker Christian orientation that is dependable, mystical yet practical and compelling. I know of very few spiritual books that are as expansive yet focused as a guide for the the aspiring spiritual seeker.

      A must-read for new Quakers - it explains the roots of Quakerism and how one author adapted them.

      Great devotional for anyone, but especially for those who have sight issues. The large print is awesome for a lady with macular degeneration.
