The Daily Quaker Message is an invitation to practice your own walk on the Quaker path. Daily Quaker emails have three parts: a short Quaker message to meditate on (often a quote, but sometimes a song, a poem, a piece of art, or a video), an exercise to try in your own life, and a query.

We curate Daily Quaker Messages from diverse sources: from different eras of history, and from people of different backgrounds and beliefs. One of the strengths of Quakerism is its ability to make room for the ministry of all Friends. We hope each message has a kernel that speaks to your condition.

Today’s Message

  • Simplicity
    by Jon Watts
    June 2025: This month’s theme is Simplicity. At a moment in our culture when we are encouraged to revere wealth and excess, we will explore the Quaker roots of plainness. We will hear from Friends who examine their relationships with their material desires, and dare to ask ourselves, “how do we know when we have enough?” The post Simplicity first appeared on The Daily Quaker Message.
