Testimony; John Woolman on Today’s Global Economy

If John Woolman were living in today’s world, how would he respond to our globalized economy?

Or, to begin with a different question, if you and I were living in John Woolman’s eighteenth-century world, how would we respond to the issue of slavery?

Starting with the second question helps us understand something of Woolman’s world and the spiritual testimony that made him such an extraordinary individual. With that understanding, we can return to illuminate the first question.
