Quaker faith and Quaker practice are
interdependent (QF&P p. 14)
In everyday British Quaker usage, the words
Quaker
faith &
practice
specifically refer to the core publication of Britain
Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (the UK coordinating
body). This is often abbreviated simply as QF&P and on this website
this
abbreviation will mostly be used for references and quotations (as at
the end of the previous paragraph on this page).
The
book Quaker Faith & Practice
"is an attempt to
express Truth through the vital personal and corporate experience of
Friends. It is largely composed of extracts from Friends' writings: a
fitting way of expressing the breadth of Quaker theology. It
also
describes the current structures (church government) of Britain Yearly
Meeting". (from www.quaker.org)
