Announcing the Quakers Today Podcast

How do prevailing cultural values affect your life?

What is your understanding of the Divine and how it works in you?

What music, films, or games represent how you see yourself in the world?

Quakers Today are asking all sorts of questions. We decided to invite Quakers and other seekers to share their questions and their journeys with us. Hi, I’m Peterson Toscano, host of the new Quakers Today podcast.

Every month Quakers Today will feature writers, musicians, and thinkers who are seeking wisdom and understanding in a rapidly changing world. You will hear views and reviews from a variety of guests, some famous, and most just everyday people.

I realize there is a lot of content coming at us all the time. So we decided to create a short 15 minute show to share some of the people, media, and questions that help ground and guide us in our pursuit of a meaningful life. Each episode begins with a question. We do not pretend to have all the answers. Instead we have a place where you can hear people speak from the heart, grapple with faith, and share the insights they have found along the way. It is also a place where you will have the opportunity to share your own insights, reflections, and questions.

Join me each month as I feature people who are not afraid to ask and answer deep questions. Quakers Today premieres November 15, 2022.

Quakers Today is a project of Friends Publishing Corporation.
