WelcomeListening to the Spirit, Sharing our Words... SpeakingTruth.org is intended to provide an online gathering place for powerful and transformative audio-media from all branches of the Quaker tradition. This site lets you can explore new ways to bring and hear the Friendly Voice's prophetic message across the world. You can hear programmed sermons, unprogrammed radio shows, interviews, ideas on peace and our other testimonies, and, of course, music from Quaker musicians. Download these shows, documentaries, sermons and music to your computer or iPod, bring them to your Meeting, share them with your non-Quaker friends, and enjoy sound from around the world. While this is a great chance to hear what others in your own tradition are doing, we encourage you to explore sermons, radio shows, and other subversive sound that might not be what you are used to. Stretch your spiritual-comfort zone, and listen in for what Spirit might be saying to other Friends! Producers: we are just launching our site. Please tell us your experience! We want to make this as fun, informative and user-friendly as possible! We are blessed to work under the umbrella of Quaker Institute for the Future, who helps makes sure our work stays faithful to Quaker process. Find out more about QIF's work to bring Quaker process to issues of global concern. Most recent
