Good Books. Good Coffee. Good Connections.
This year Banned Books are the focus as we look at not only a variety of literary voices, but also how free speech, access to ideas, censorship, enlightenment, and appropriateness of content all come in to play. In this world that God has gifted us, how do our spirits of free will process all that creation has to offer and deem what is “okay” for others to know…and when. And as travelers on the journey together, who has the right to decide? We trust these tricky conversations will be in good hands as we move forward in the presence of the One who created it all. And, let’s not forget, the Holy Bible holds the distinction of being a banned book. That alone could keep us discussing passionately all year long. Please join us! Interested? Contact Sue Craik.
