Susan had a reference to this post, and after a particularly difficult week, this was really uplifting. So thank you! Hope to see you again in this, oh too busy, lifetime!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01663353371755363732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-53106071054297466662009-01-23T13:09:00.000-06:002009-01-23T13:09:00.000-06:00What a lovely post, Cheryl.

You touch on some things I've been ruminating on lately, so I appreciate what you've written.<BR/><BR/>Atara, there's a free study guide for this book at:<BR/><BR/>http://www.cph.org/pdf/Helps/124289_StudyGuide.pdfAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-65224839890909092372009-01-18T15:10:00.000-06:002009-01-18T15:10:00.000-06:00Atara - your local library system will have many o...Atara - your local library system will have many or most of CS Lewis' works. Start with <B>The Screwtape Letters</B> or <B>The Great Divorce</B>, if you want to get into his theological writings. Otherwise, start with the Chronicles of Narnia. <BR/><BR/>Some other ones that are good: <B>The Spirituality of the Cross</B>, by Gene Edward Veith. I just finished <B>Christ Have Mercy: How to Put Your Faith In Action</B> by Matthew Harrison, which would work well for a book club or Bible study. <BR/><BR/>There are lots others, too!Elephantschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14610471467736150461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-27508692309555270372009-01-18T10:18:00.000-06:002009-01-18T10:18:00.000-06:00Atara, I have the good fortune to live with a prof...Atara, I have the good fortune to live with a professional church worker, so I am usually swimming in these types of books, and every once in a while I actually find time to read one. Our church also stocks a small bookstore with recommended reading, and I read blogs and talk to other Lutherans and get suggestions that way, too. I'm not sure of one certain place I could send you to for suggestions. Can any of my readers help? <BR/><BR/>And by all means, an ELCA member could read Kleinig's book (and others). Good theology is good theology! It is trans-denominational in my opinion!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04817680463922038375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-72455904147196095002009-01-18T03:50:00.000-06:002009-01-18T03:50:00.000-06:00I don't think I can watch that movie.

I would love our women's group to do a Lutheran book!!!!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10699594279497017744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2973269483459581996.post-5290110034632174822009-01-17T18:56:00.000-06:002009-01-17T18:56:00.000-06:00Amen, dear friend.
