Doug Gwyn has researched and written extensively on early Quakers
in 17th-century England. His other books include Apocalypse of the
Word, and Seekers Found. He has taught at the Pendle Hill Quaker
Study Center near Philadelphia, and at Woodbrooke in Birmingham,
England. Doug has also worked with the American Friends Service
Committee, and is Pastor of First Friends Church, Richmond,
Indiana. The Covenant Crucified combines the scholarly and
prophetic to compare "covenant," uniting people under the care of a
transcendent God, and "contract," uniting them primarily through
secular visions of self-interest. "This book, part of Doug Gwyn's
trilogy on early Quaker history, is critical to our understanding
of early Friends and how the movement changed in the first decades.
Gwyn outlines the highly distinctive nature of the Quaker covenant
of light, and how that was transformed within a generation into a
more worldly contractual understanding. It is also a call to
Quakers today to recover a sense of covenant for the journey
ahead." - Ben Pink Dandelion, Quaker Studies tutor, University of
Birmingham/Woodbrooke
