Weekly Book Discussion Group

About

The weekly book discussion group has been meeting for more than 18 years, and generally reads 4 or 5 books a year. We meet weekly on zoom from Thursday from 7:15 - 8:45 pm to discuss and debate current, timely books on contemporary Catholic topics. All are welcome, and no previous experience is needed. We read the books in small sections, a chapter or two at a time, so it's a great, low-pressure way to engage with some inspiring theological, scriptural, and historical sources. For more information, email Brian Flanagan at [email protected].
