New Book Study!

I am leading a book study of Adam Hamilton's latest on Wednesday nights this fall.It looks like a really interesting book. I hope you can join us. (You don't have to be a mamber of Edgemont to participate. Or even a Christian for that matter.)

Below is a preview video and a short description of the book.

We'll meet on Wednesday nights at 6:30 at EUMC. A wonderful dinner (cooked by reader, & winner of a 2009 Matt Miller Memorial COTY Award, Laura Senecal) will precede the study at 5:30.

Here's some info on the book:

More and more young adults have opted out of Christianity and the church. The reason? Christians.
When young adults talk about the problems they have with Christianity and the church, they often name certain attitudes and behaviors they believe are practiced too often by Christians: judging others, condemning people of other faiths, rejecting science, injecting politics into faith, and being anti-homosexual. With his familiar style, Adam Hamilton tackles these issues and addresses the how’s and why’s of Christians getting it right when it comes to being Christ in the world.
Those who read When Christians Get It Wrong will gain a different way of understanding the issues that keep people away from Christianity and keep Christians from living a more compelling faith. Because, honestly, if we don’t start getting it right, we may lose an entire generation.

  1. This week's Sunday School lesson hits on the same subject. Should have lots of interesting conversation. Looking forward to it...and looking forward to the Wednesday night group you will be leading. Thanks for volunteering to facilitate.
