November's Book

Our book for November is by Noel Piper, "Treasuring God in Your Traditions." Grab a copy of the book and start reading. It's a fairly short book, so we can pass around the copies that we do have. Get the word out so we can start looking at dates.



(Following blurb directly quoted from Desiring God website) You can also read the book online from this link. Hmm...sounds like a good idea!

"Only God can bequeath God to our children. But he uses means. He uses God-centered traditions and Bible-saturated family patterns and grace-laden heirlooms.

Only God can give our children a taste for the sweetness of God. Only God can awaken them to his worth. But year in and year out there are traditions that show them: God is our Treasure.

After more than 30 years of marriage and childrearing, Noël Piper opens her home to you. She invites you into the happy, imperfect Piper pattern of life. Come with her and enjoy the way she helps us treasure God in our traditions."

First book club meeting

The book club meeting was postponed until this last Tuesday, but finally we met! There were only four of us, but we had such a good time... for all of you who might be contemplating coming. We stayed up late trying to watch as much of a five-hour version of P&P as we could, but any one could have left at any time. There were even snacks.
