Join us for a monthly virtual book group. We will read fun, heartwarming books that reflect God through faith-filled characters and content. Then we will gather over Zoom with the author to discuss them.
Why Christian Fiction?
As a voracious reader, I was looking for characters that reflected my world view. Wouldn't it be great if characters talked about their faith, went to church, and prayed as they worked through challenges? I discovered an entire genre of books just like that.
Each month, we read one book and then gather to meet the author behind the story. Each author has their own story, and it is fascinating to learn about them.
There are two ways to participate.
Check out what we're currently reading below, and see our past reads and recordings from our Zoom calls with the authors.
The Fable app allows us to read at our own pace and avoid spoilers. Join us there, or just read on your own and sign up to get the Zoom link each month.
The All-American
by Susie Finkbeiner
Two sisters discover how much good there is in the world--even in the hardest of circumstances
It is 1952, and nearly all the girls 16-year-old Bertha Harding knows dream of getting married, keeping house, and raising children in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. Bertha dreams of baseball. She reads every story in the sports section, she plays ball with the neighborhood boys--she even writes letters to the pitcher for the Workington Sweet Peas, part of the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League.
When Bertha's father is accused of being part of the Communist Party by the House Un-American Activities Committee, life comes crashing down on them. Disgraced and shunned, the Hardings move to a small town to start over where the only one who knows them is shy Uncle Matthew. But dreams are hard to kill, and when Bertha gets a chance to try out for the Workington Sweet Peas, she packs her bags for an adventure she'll never forget.
