Join host Greg Thompson in September and October as we discuss Kaitlyn Schiess’ book, The Ballot and the Bible.
This study explores America’s history of using the Bible in politics, highlighting moments of proper practice and examples of deep misuse, and helps us apply the Scriptures in our political participation.

Our Book Study is an informal community of readers led by Center Advisory Board member Gregory Thompson.
We gather around a book we have selected for its relevance to the Center’s focus on growing in love of God, neighbor, and self. Our studies last anywhere from four to eight weeks, depending on the book. We connect once a week on Zoom for 90 minutes, typically in the evening. Many of our members also participate in the Center Community Group, a more general space for connection and peer-based learning
