Quaker Testimony and Economics: Faith and Practice
24 February 2025, Online
What happens when we decide to align our economic activities with our Quaker Testimony? In this interactive online session Pamela Haines, author of Money and Soul, will offer some perspective and lead reflective activities to explore this question.
The economy and our financial choices may often feel like something quite distinct and separate from our faith; but we know that economic choices and systems can have a huge impact on equity, justice, the natural world and more.
Are these systems totally out of our control, or are there alternative ways of doing economics that are more aligned with Quaker Testimony? What are these and how can we make these shifts?
In this 90-minute session, we will hear Pamela's ideas about this and then engage in dialogue with each other and her to explore further.
In only a short time, we will be able to start this reflection process, but probably not completely finish it! Pamela's Quaker Quicks book Money and Soul may help you to take this exploration further.
