Description

Reasonable Uncertainty by Gerald Priestland explores the Quaker approach to doctrine and its relationship with the Christian faith. In this thought-provoking work, Priestland draws upon his experience in discussing various church doctrines, highlighting their flexibility and usefulness. Quakers are known for their cautious approach to doctrine, believing it can limit understanding of God rather than bring people together. Priestland argues that doctrine is not about rigid certainties, but rather a set of tools to be used and passed on. By embracing this approach, Quakers can engage with doctrinal thinking in a meaningful way. This book offers a unique perspective on the role of doctrine within Christianity, encouraging readers to consider its value and significance.
