Discussion Leader: Ginny
Date: March 4
Time: 12:00-1:00pm
Location: UUCT Emerson room (the orange room in Goddard)
Topic: Christianity from the World's Religions by Huston Smith
Additional Resources: the chapter focuses on the history of the religion, and the spiritual foundations of it. I've found a few resources online which cover some of the same material, so if you don't have the book, you can still participate. (see below)
For up-to-date information and discussions, join us on facebook: World Religions Book Club at UUCT
These sources are all freely available online, but you might want to print them to bring to the discussion
