Primitive Christianity Revived, Again

Why Do Quakers Have Testimonies?

ESR alum and current Richmond First Friends pastor Derek Parker delivered this message during worship there on Sunday, August 24, 2014:

[F]or many of us, when it came to religion, we were subtly taught never to ask “Why?” Matters of faith were to be matters of certainty – not about questions. And the Bible and God were supposedly unquestionable.

But if we never asked “Why?”, our understandings of things would be overly simplistic and shallow. No matter if we are trying to understand plants, or chemicals, or even Christian faith.

We need to ask “Why?” if we are going to be capable of growing.
