Book Club first Thursday

Don't forget book club next week!! We are meeting at Diana's and reading Mere Christianity by CS Lewis. This is a nonfiction collection of essays. Here is a snipet of the Foreword:

"As a young man, C.S. Lewis had served in the awful trenches of World War I, and in 1940 . . .he took up duties as an air raid warden and gave talks to men in the Royal Air Force...Their situation prompted Lewis to speak about the problems of suffering, pain, and evil, work that resulted in his being invited to give a series of wartime broadcasts on Christian faith. Delivered over the air from 1942 to 1944, these speeches eventually were gathered into the book we know to day as Mere Christianity."

I guess I'm trying to say, even if you read a few chapters, you wil have plenty to contribute to the discussion!! Hope to see you there!
