It looks like Brookmeade has a group starting to discuss this book.
I've just started reading it and the best quote so far is "if your church isn't telling you to love your enemies but keeps telling you who your enemies are, you're not really in a church"
OK I think we can go ahead and call What Your Body Knows About God by Rob Moll our first book. Let's give ourselves a few weeks to acquire the book and get started. Here is the table of contents so let's say we'll read from the Foreword through chapter 1 before our first Google Meet. Do you all prefer a weekend or weekday evening, or we could do a Saturday late morning. I'll create an event after everyone adds input.
I would love to get some ideas together from folks who’d like to read a book alongside each other and then discuss. We could read a few chapters at a time before we meet via zoom, but I’m just brainstorming here and am open to all ideas.
Ideas for books to read together that I’ve been thinking about:
Science and spirituality as two sides of the same coin
Experiencing God through the arts
Theological works along the lines of God’s upside down kingdom - Walter Brueggemann, Brennan Manning, Fleming Rutledge, similar
Fiction, duh
I'd be interested in "What your body knows" I also have been itching to read some more religion ajacent books that would be along the line of "the screwtape letters". (which i actually have never read) or even fiction that has religions allegory and discussing those sorts of things as well.

Great, I can put it out there that we are reading this book and such.
I am ordering a copy from Amazon, but I might also check McKay’s at some point for other copies.
My schedule will just be kind of dependent on a week to week basis. Saturday morning might work well, as well as Monday or Thursday nights.
