Elizabeth Hooton was the fierce and determined matriarch of the early Quaker movement who outmaneuvered magistrates and kings to spread the Gospel of Love. 

From her illegal farmhouse congregation in England to the royal courts of an empire, Hooton’s journey reveals a pioneer who refused to remain quiet when the Spirit asked her to speak. She proved that a tender heart can still possess a sharp prophetic edge, and left a blueprint for resistance in our times.
