CQL Reading Group: Practicing Peace

This year, the Concern for Quaker Living reading group will focus on Practicing Peace: a devotional walk through the Quaker tradition by Catherine Whitmire

CQL Book Group Fall 2026

This year's '26-'27 selection is Practicing Peace: a devotional walk through the Quaker tradition by Catherine Whitmire, a 2007 text that may shake (Quake?) you up and help you to experience more vitality, yet more peace in all your endeavors. You'll experience the wisdom of many voices in the Quaker tradition.
