Compassion (&) Conviction Book Club

In a time of political polarization, I think this book provides many great insights on how Christians can approach civic engagement faithfully.

But even more important than that, the principles in this book can help us be the salt and light Jesus called us to be. The principles apply to all the ways we are called to steward our influence, not only politically, but also in our churches, workplaces, schools, and neighborhoods.

Join me on Facebook. I’ve set up a Facebook Group called “Compassion (&) Conviction Book Club.”

JOIN HERE.

We will cover two chapters per week (one on Monday and one on Friday). Discussion on chapter 1 begins March 29.

I will set up a "Guide" for each chapter. Enter comments for a chapter in the appropriate "Guide."

Rules for engagement:

  • Make your comments in the spirit of Galatians 5:22-23 and 6:1-3.

  • If you join the group, comment. No gawkers. But avoid technical words. Write in a way that would make sense to a well-educated 13-year-old.

  • This is a very short book with relatively short chapters (eight in all). But if you can't keep up with the reading, remove yourself. No judgment if you do.

  • This is only for people who are my friends on Facebook or in the Five Oaks Church family (i.e., I should be able to find you in our database), including friends invited by someone who is in either one of those groups (let me know your connection if you're not a FB friend or Five Oaker).

I’d love for you to join me. JOIN HERE.
