Some of the Tract Association’s materials are available in print. Here is a list of pamphlets and books that we currently have in stock.
-
A Key
Originally published in 1692, this tract was intended to explain Quakerism to those who did not know the truth about Friends. It is also a good introduction to new Friends and a refresher for old Friends.
-
A Quaker View of the Christian Revelation
The experience of the living presence of Christ is the basis for Quakerism. The continuing presence brings about a new relationship between God and individuals, but also between God and his people as a group.
-
A Question of Authority
The tendency to rely on human leadership comes from people who are not “hearing” the message that God wants to lead them directly.
-
A True Testimony Concerning My Faith in Christ
“I believe in Him, as he is the Minister of the sanctuary, and true tabernacle which God hath pitched, and not man; who by his power and spirit hath fitted and made many able and faithful ministers. He is the Minister of ministers.”
-
Concerning the order and government of the church of Christ, No. 1 and No. 2
These two tracts describe the proper ordering and functioning of spiritual religious society from extracts of the writings of Isaac Penington.
-
Congregational Silence
When we wait upon the Lord, there are postures we take during worship. There is the silence of reality, the silence of reverence, the silence of recollection, and the silence of receptivity.
-
Detraction
Speak only good of people. Evil, even if true, is hurtful to the speaker, the hearer, and the person spoken about.
-
Forgiveness
If we do not love those who trespass against us, we will not be in a forgiving spirit.
-
In Prison, Yet Free
A German Friend writes of her experience in a Nazi prison and how prayer and hardship became sources of strength and freedom.
-
In the Will of God, Stand
There’s a moment in the life of a Christian when you finally yield fully to God. Adapted from a longer tract by Kenneth Morse, “Conversion: Is it Gradual or Instantaneous?” in 1943.
