WELCOME TO THE CLUB!

You’re in! And we’re so glad!

Each month, we are gathering around a good book, good questions, and good people who care about place, presence, and practicing faith where we actually live.

Here’s how to get started…

STEP 1: GET THE BOOK

We recommend purchasing your copy from your local bookstore or bookshop.org.

You can also borrow a copy from a friend or library.

The book releases September 23. You can pre-order and it will arrive before October.

STEP 2: MARK YOUR CALENDAR

We’ll send you an email with Zoom link separately. Look for that to arrive a week before the Book Club starts.


In the mean time, you can see the schedule below.
