The Wednesday Evening Book Study group resumed meeting April 22, 2015, with the book The Faith Club: A Muslim, a Christian, a Jew–Three Women Search for Understanding, by Ranya Idliby, Suzanne Oliver, and Priscilla Warner.
“The Faith Club is a memoir of spiritual reflections in three voices that will make readers feel as if they are eavesdropping on the authors’ private conversations, provocative discussions, and often controversial opinions and conclusions. The authors wrestle with the issues of anti-Semitism, prejudice against Muslims, and preconceptions of Christians at a time when fundamentalists dominate the public face of Christianity. They write beautifully and affectingly of their families, their losses and grief, their fears and hopes for themselves and their loved ones. And as the authors reveal their deepest beliefs, readers watch the blossoming of a profound interfaith friendship and the birth of a new way of relating to others.”
Please join us at 7:00 pm on Wednesdays through the end of May for lively discussion and kind-hearted mutual support.
