Common Questions:

What do Quakers believe? - We believe that every person is loved and guided by God.  Broadly speaking, we affirm that “there is that of God in everyone.” Everyone is known by God and can know God in a direct relationship.  We are called to attend to this relationship and to be guided by it. Quakers use many words to describe the Divine.  Some of them include: God, the Light Within, Christ, Spirit, Seed, and Inward Teacher.

Do Quakers believe in Jesus? - Quakerism is a way of life, rather than a set of beliefs. It has roots in Christianity and many Quakers find the life and teachings of Jesus inspirational, but we have no creed.
