Friends value an experiential approach to life and religious thought. Our readers particularly value articles on: exploring Friends\u2019 testimonies and beliefs; integrating faith, work, and home lives; historical and contemporary Friends; social concerns and actions; and the variety of beliefs across the branches of Friends.<\/p>\n<p><em>Friends Journal<\/em>\u00a0prefers articles with a constructive approach to spiritual seeking. We seek an open, curious and respectful tone even when discussing controversial subjects. We prefer articles rooted in the author\u2019s own experiences of the divine. Submissions should show an awareness of Friends\u2019 ways and concerns, as well as sensitivity to them.<\/p>\n<h5>October Issue, due July 17th<\/h5>\n<p>There was once a time during which Quakers mostly kept to themselves. But modern Friends are very involved in the world and spend a lot of time working with people of all faiths.<\/p>\n<p>Our October issue will look at\u00a0<strong>Ecumenical and Interfaith Friends<\/strong>. Some questions that might be addressed:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What do Friends raised in other traditions bring to us?<\/li>\n<li>What about Friends whose spirituality also embraces other faiths?<\/li>\n<li>How do we make common ground with other Christians?<\/li>\n<li>What is the balance between keeping to our own traditions and opening up to others?<\/li>\n<li>Is there a danger of being too ecumenical? Is it possible to lose our own beliefs?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Fast Facts<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Features run 1200-2500 words.<\/li>\n<li>Submissions close July 17, 2023.<\/li>\n<li>Questions?
