7 Literary Books Our Church Read Together for 2019 - 2020 [Apostles Reads]

As I look back on the year, the themes of exile and home, journey and escape, peace breaking and peacemaking provided a literary counterpoint to the pendulum we found ourselves swinging between turbulence and exhausted apathy. Perhaps this is the greatest gift the liturgical calendar gives us - a steady rhythm of fasting and feasting, celebration and penitence, lament and resurrection year in and year out. All of this works together to keep us company while we put one foot in front of the other toward our forever home.

After you read through the list of titles our church read together last year, I’d love to hear from you!
