SUMMARY:Pastor Drew's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Pastor Drew’s Book Club: Unapologetic\nWednesdays | 7:00–8:30 PM\nAugust 19\, August 26 & September 2\nFloris United Methodist Church \nHave you ever struggled to explain why your faith still matters in today’s world? Or wondered how to talk about Christianity in a way that is honest\, thoughtful\, and grounded in real life? Join Pastor Drew for a three-week book club as we read and discuss Unapologetic: Why\, Despite Everything\, Christianity Can Still Make Surprising Emotional Sense by Francis Spufford. \nRather than offering a traditional defense of Christianity\, Spufford shares a heartfelt and refreshingly honest account of what it means to follow Christ in a world where faith is often misunderstood or dismissed. With his signature wit\, insightful storytelling\, and engaging writing style\, he explores the emotional and spiritual realities of Christian belief\, acknowledging both the beauty and the challenges of living a life of faith. His approach is thoughtful\, authentic\, and often humorous\, making this an engaging read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Christianity. \nWhether you’ve been a Christian for many years\, are exploring faith for the first time\, or simply enjoy meaningful conversations about life and belief\, this book club offers a welcoming space to read\, reflect\, and learn together. Pastor Drew will guide each week’s discussion\, creating opportunities to explore the book’s themes\, ask questions\, share perspectives\, and encourage one another in faith. \nThis three-week series is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others\, deepen your understanding of the Christian faith\, and engage with a thought-provoking book in a relaxed and welcoming environment. We encourage participants to attend all three sessions to get the most out of the discussion\, but you’re welcome to join us even if you can’t make every week. \nRegistration is encouraged so we can plan accordingly. Reserve your spot using the registration link and join us as we journey through Unapologetic together. \nRegister Here \nWe look forward to seeing you on Wednesday evenings from 7:00–8:30 PM at Floris United Methodist Church!

SUMMARY:Pastor Drew's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Pastor Drew’s Book Club: Unapologetic\nWednesdays | 7:00–8:30 PM\nAugust 19\, August 26 & September 2\nFloris United Methodist Church \nHave you ever struggled to explain why your faith still matters in today’s world? Or wondered how to talk about Christianity in a way that is honest\, thoughtful\, and grounded in real life? Join Pastor Drew for a three-week book club as we read and discuss Unapologetic: Why\, Despite Everything\, Christianity Can Still Make Surprising Emotional Sense by Francis Spufford. \nRather than offering a traditional defense of Christianity\, Spufford shares a heartfelt and refreshingly honest account of what it means to follow Christ in a world where faith is often misunderstood or dismissed. With his signature wit\, insightful storytelling\, and engaging writing style\, he explores the emotional and spiritual realities of Christian belief\, acknowledging both the beauty and the challenges of living a life of faith. His approach is thoughtful\, authentic\, and often humorous\, making this an engaging read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Christianity. \nWhether you’ve been a Christian for many years\, are exploring faith for the first time\, or simply enjoy meaningful conversations about life and belief\, this book club offers a welcoming space to read\, reflect\, and learn together. Pastor Drew will guide each week’s discussion\, creating opportunities to explore the book’s themes\, ask questions\, share perspectives\, and encourage one another in faith. \nThis three-week series is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others\, deepen your understanding of the Christian faith\, and engage with a thought-provoking book in a relaxed and welcoming environment. We encourage participants to attend all three sessions to get the most out of the discussion\, but you’re welcome to join us even if you can’t make every week. \nRegistration is encouraged so we can plan accordingly. Reserve your spot using the registration link and join us as we journey through Unapologetic together. \nRegister Here \nWe look forward to seeing you on Wednesday evenings from 7:00–8:30 PM at Floris United Methodist Church!

SUMMARY:Pastor Drew's Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Pastor Drew’s Book Club: Unapologetic\nWednesdays | 7:00–8:30 PM\nAugust 19\, August 26 & September 2\nFloris United Methodist Church \nHave you ever struggled to explain why your faith still matters in today’s world? Or wondered how to talk about Christianity in a way that is honest\, thoughtful\, and grounded in real life? Join Pastor Drew for a three-week book club as we read and discuss Unapologetic: Why\, Despite Everything\, Christianity Can Still Make Surprising Emotional Sense by Francis Spufford. \nRather than offering a traditional defense of Christianity\, Spufford shares a heartfelt and refreshingly honest account of what it means to follow Christ in a world where faith is often misunderstood or dismissed. With his signature wit\, insightful storytelling\, and engaging writing style\, he explores the emotional and spiritual realities of Christian belief\, acknowledging both the beauty and the challenges of living a life of faith. His approach is thoughtful\, authentic\, and often humorous\, making this an engaging read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Christianity. \nWhether you’ve been a Christian for many years\, are exploring faith for the first time\, or simply enjoy meaningful conversations about life and belief\, this book club offers a welcoming space to read\, reflect\, and learn together. Pastor Drew will guide each week’s discussion\, creating opportunities to explore the book’s themes\, ask questions\, share perspectives\, and encourage one another in faith. \nThis three-week series is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others\, deepen your understanding of the Christian faith\, and engage with a thought-provoking book in a relaxed and welcoming environment. We encourage participants to attend all three sessions to get the most out of the discussion\, but you’re welcome to join us even if you can’t make every week. \nRegistration is encouraged so we can plan accordingly. Reserve your spot using the registration link and join us as we journey through Unapologetic together. \nRegister Here \nWe look forward to seeing you on Wednesday evenings from 7:00–8:30 PM at Floris United Methodist Church!
