I am really enjoying it and find myself thinking about it throughout the day.<br />I wanted to share one of passages that make me really start to think early on.<br />Page 93 when Papa is speaking<br />"To reveal myself to you as a very large, white grandfather figure with flowing beard, like Gandalf, would simply reinforce your religious stereotypes, and this weekend in not about reinforcing religious stereotypes."<br /><br />What religious stereotypes do you have?<br /><br />Some of mine:<br />-The appearance of God as described in the passage<br />-God is always gentle and kind<br />-God controls all our actions (he gave us free will which unfortunately at times lets us control ourselves)<br />-God doesn't understand this world as it is now<br /><br />Those are just some that came to my mind.<br />Again, I hope you are enjoying the book and feel free to comment as you feel fit.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4386214721449945199-1408817872567550931?l=kopcocladies.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>KOP Book Clubhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02797333507158077418noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4386214721449945199.post-5485244880434109622009-10-15T17:19:00.000-07:002009-10-30T06:50:03.916-07:00The October selection is The Shack.<br />The discussion will be November 7th from <span style="font-weight: bold;">9:00-11:00 </span>at my house!<br />Please note the time change.<br />Please RSVP to this post if you will be attending.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4386214721449945199-548524488043410962?l=kopcocladies.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Lauren McCluggagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13285815454222818316noreply@blogger.com1
