St. Thomas Study Group
Please watch for email from Mike Yusko for our Sunday, Nov. 17 meeting time.
Notes from Mike Yusko:
We have finished the Spong book. Our next book will be Howard Thurman’s Jesus and the Disinherited. This is one of the books Martin Luther King leaned on early in his ministry. If you need more time to get the book, I can just read the first pages out loud and you can listen. Thurman’s words are easy to follow.
I bought the Kindle version on Amazon. Paperback prices currently range from $8.86 (used) to $10.89 (new) on Amazon. I have included a link at the end of this email. The Kindle version is $12.99. Hardcover is $15.22.
I have skimmed through the book… so far in particular I most admire chapter 4 (Hate) and chapter 5 (Love). I am eager to read more—together with all of you.
In case Thurman’s book is not to your liking, we have also decided the next two books after the Thurman book. I expect us to finish the Thurman in a few months (it is only about 100 pages long), and after that we will read Dynamics of Faith by Paul Tillich. Then we will read John P. Dourley’s The Psyche as Sacrament: A Comparative Study of C.G. Jung and Paul Tillich. Just a little heads-up if that helps you in your long-range planning.
We will continue to meet in hybrid fashion, both in person at St. Andrew’s and via Zoom at the same time. We start this upcoming Sunday, November 10th.
Thanks,
Mike
