Reading from 12.15.2.15.12

I read the two versions of this book as homework for being part of a Sticky Faith cohort out at Fuller. I would not recommend reading both but I would recommend reading one of the two. The book is based of the concern that too many teens leave the Christian faith after HS and the chapters offer ideas based on stories and developing reseach on what might help change the statistics so that more students continue being part of the church.



The Sojourn was recommended to me by my wife and it was a good read. It is the story of a boy, his 'brother', father and his journey into manhood. It is set in the context of WWI which I realized I know little about that period in history.




Four Ways to Forgiveness was my latest media club book and I went into it with high hopes. I completed it a little disappointed. I think if I had read other books by LeGuin first I may have enjoyed it more as I would have better understood the characters and context. I would not recommend this as an introduction to LeGuin.
