Summer Book Reviews Lineup

Join us Sunday Mornings for Summer Book Reviews!

The summer book reviews are a beloved tradition as an educational offering on Sundays during the summer months. We particularly focus on books that explore religious, moral, or ethical concerns within society and the world.
