Pastor Rich will be doing an online book club on Rachel Held Evans’ Inspired: Slaying Giants, Walking on Water, and Loving the Bible Again, starting May 23 at 7:00 pm on Zoom (for 3-4 weeks). The book sells for $11.99 on Amazon.com. Contact Pastor Rich for more information, and please let him know if you plan to be part of the book club.

Here’s a summary of Evans’ book, taken from the back cover:
“If the Bible isn’t a science book or an instruction manual, then what is it? What do people mean when they say the Bible is inspired? When Rachel Held Evans found herself asking these questions, she began a quest to better understand what the Bible is and how it is meant to be read . . . Undaunted by the Bible’s most difficult passages, Evans wrestles through the process of doubting, imagining, and debating Scripture’s mysteries. The Bible, she discovers, is not a static work but is a living, breathing, captivating, and confounding book that is able to equip us to join God’s loving and redemptive work in the world.”
