Synopsis

SPICE Up Your Life invites readers to consider how mundane encounters can be brimming with opportunities for reflection about God, life, and relationships. Such a practice promises to deepen our understanding of the situations in which we are immersed, as well as shape our responses in those moments.

The book promotes this reflective practice within the context of Quaker testimonies, which form a bedrock foundation for defining the aspirations of Quaker living. Far from being historic relics, these values can help align one's life practices with one's convictions. SPICE Up Your Life helps us learn to articulate afresh the truthfulness we seek to communicate, and to do so in a manner that does in fact bear witness to the convictions Friends deem to be deserving of the label "testimony."
