Wisdom to Know the Difference book reading:
Quaker blogger Eileen Flanagan (Imperfect Serenity) gives a reading from her new book The Wisdom to Know the Difference in the Big Blue Marble bookstore in Philadelphia’s Mt Airy section.
The morning after this talk Eileen wrote a post “Eight Things I’ve Learned (So Far) About Giving a Book Talk.”

The willingness to confront both our own failings and the ways of the prevailing culture are among the qualities that have enabled Quakers to influence history out of proportion to our numbers.
