Discover a window into 19th‑century Shaker thought through the sermons and essays in this collection. It invites readers to examine core beliefs, practice, and the search for spiritual truth.
Written by a Shaker elder who lived the principles he describes, the book blends theology, history, and critique. It traces how Shaker ideals—purity, equality, and nonviolence—shape a disciplined, spiritual life, while engaging with questions about divine unity, Christ’s role, and the relationship between orthodox faith and spiritual experience.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a series of sermons that focus on the harmony of truth and the nature of God as indivisible and immutable. The author argues that all truths harmonize, and any apparent contradictions indicate that one or both statements are false. The author also explores the concept of duality in Deity, arguing that God is both Father and Mother, and that this duality is reconciled through the Son and Daughter of God. The sermons also discuss the importance of confession and repentance, and the necessity of overcoming the world within in order to achieve salvation. The author argues that the only way to be saved is to walk as Christ walked, and to overcome the world within as He overcame. Overall, this book offers a unique perspective on Christian theology and the nature of God, and will be of interest to those seeking a deeper understanding of these topics.
