@Jonah Yes, it was such a good one. I saw it recommended by someone and I really enjoyed it! I wish I had been exposed to this while in high school.
@ReaderJohn One more positive: it’s not a very long book and well worth the read, in my opinion. Let me know what you think when you read it eventually.
@ReaderJohn That book by Howard was influential for me, as well. Thanks for bringing it up!
@JohnBrady So much here, John, and thank you for joining the party. I love seeing the contours of your story in what you wrote. I wish I could sit and hear more about your response to Graham Greene’s novel and your journey toward Orthodoxy. And what a gift to read your last bullet point about the influence of your son on your faith now. Thank you for this.
@tinyroofnail Wow! What a list. Thank you so much for sharing. I appreciate your writing about SP. While I know there are many critiques of the organization, I love to hear your “on the ground” perspective, which is refreshing. It’s a gift to read this and thank you for this.
@JimRain I’m feeling a lot of resonance with your author list (as with others), and I appreciate reading your more personal family and friend influences.
@cjhubbs This is so great. I really enjoy reading your comments and all the comments here. I love getting a view into who and how our life with God is shaped.
@ReaderJohn These are rich conversation partners throughout your life. Thank you so much for sharing all this!
