Read About Friends Online Christian Worship Center
Why is there a need for Friends Online Christian Worship Center?
Friends Online Christian Worship Center was started to address problems with liberal unprogrammed Quaker meetings. Specifically,
- Unprogrammed meetings tend towards séance type worshipping.
- Unprogrammed meetings can encourage a cult of personality.
- The liberal tradition tends to be unprophetic.
We hope to address these problems and improve unprogrammed worship for ourselves and others by emphasizing the following,
- Ask worshippers to be mindful of the queries that guide each worship session.
- Emphasize consensus led rather than clerk led decision-making.
- Move closer to the Christian Quaker tradition, but allowing guidance by prophetic and spiritualist traditions.

The core of that alternate reality is very simple: <strong>It is the conviction that this person has an inner teacher, has wisdom and truth within herself or himself, and does not need at this moment in time our wisdom, our inner teacher, our guidance, [but] instead needs access to that voice within.</strong>
