Novel (& Reel) Theology |
|
Literature shapes our understanding of ideas like love, compassion, forgiveness, redemption; in other words, those markers we encounter in following Christ. This year we will mix novels with movies and occasional non-fiction.
Novel Theology discussions are open to anyone who has read the book or seen the movie. Invite your friends.
Books are available at Morgan Hill Bookstore at a 15% discount. Movies available from Tracy Library sometimes and the office sometimes and for rent on-line. We meet on the second Wednesday of the month at 7 PM.
