Book-of-the-Month
Discussion Series
"Reading
Christians will be knowing Christians."
-John Wesley
The
Rev. Farris Book Study and Potluck meets on the 4th Sunday of each
month from 11:30 am - 1 pm in the Fireside Room (unless otherwise noted).
All are invited for the potluck lunch and lively discussion. The
books are chosen because they are thought provoking, controversial,
and illuminating. Our goal is to grow our minds as we deepen our
faith.
No
sign up is necessary. Just pick up the book, read it prior
to the discussion, and come with questions. (In addition to the
church library, the books are available in local bookstores, public
libraries, and online.)
