"In a context in which an intimate interactive relationship with God is not always highly valued, understood, or actively nurtured, and whose importance as the root of social action is sometimes overlooked, this book witnesses to the action of God in the lives of Friends today, and their response to it. Mysticism at work." -Frances Taber, Ohio

"The stories range all over the human condition and encompass such a broad variety of people's experience of God that when one needs to read the words of another human being wrestling with an experience similar to one's own-it is possible to find it among the many stories. All of us have so much of the world in our lives, dragging us away from faith, that this kind of book is what we need." -Rita Varley, Philadelphia Yearly Meeting Library

What Canst Thou Say? is a quarterly newsletter that has gathered stories of Quakers sharing their first-hand mystical experience and contemplative practice. It is produced cooperatively by a group of volunteers, who, themselves, have felt the movement of the Spirit and wish to deepen their understanding by interacting with others. This book includes some of the stories and poems published in the first ten years as celebration of our tenth anniversary.
