Summer Book Club

Each summer we like to choose a book (usually one connected with religion or faith) and discuss over the course of a few weeks.

This summer we'll be reading Jodi Picoult's Keeping Faith. Each week the group will discuss 2-3 chapters. So it's okay if you have to miss a week (including the first one).

Discussions will take place in the Wesley Room (Rm. 1).

Considering buying the book through the church's Amazon store.

Plot synopsis from Amazon - "When the marriage of Mariah White and her cheating husband, Colin, turns ugly and disintegrates, their seven-year-old daughter, Faith, is there to witness it all. In the aftermath of a rapid divorce, Mariah falls into a deep depression—and suddenly Faith, a child with no religious background whatsoever, hears divine voices, starts reciting biblical passages, and develops stigmata. And when the miraculous healings begin, mother and daughter are thrust into the volatile center of controversy and into the heat of a custody battle—trapped in a mad media circus that threatens what little stability the family has left."
