Book Group 2009 redux

by Jeff Miller

Well, it’s hard to believe 2009 is coming to a close. The RPC Book group has been down several different roads this year. We have seen glimpses of God’s Glory and Grace an much of man’s depravity through 11 vehicles of literature.
We have wandered from 20th c Vienna to the rural South to California to strange unnamed lands and found the human predicament consistent with what we are taught in Scripture. We really sin- a lot and we really need a Savior- a lot!. Thanks be to God, we have one in Christ! We also spent some time looking at orthodox Christian belief, the sacrament of Communion and Godhead-centered worship. That’s not even taking rabbit trails into the mix!

I’ll post about what’s coming in 2010 shortly- you won’t want to miss it!

As a reminder, here are the books we read together:

Thunder at Twilight Morton, Frederic

Everything That Rises Must Converge O’Connor, Flannery

East of Eden Steinbeck,John

Mystical Presence Nevin,JW

Blood Meridian McCarthy, Cormac

One Hundred Years of Solitude Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

Better Way Horton,Michael

Tempest Shakespeare, Wm

John Calvin: Steward of God’s Covenant Calvin, John

Heart of the Matter Greene,Graham

Christianity and Liberalism Machen, J Gresham
