May 14th Our Theme Is: Share Your Favorite Essay From "God In The Dock"


There are almost forty essays in God In The Dock and they're all first rate. So it might be an adventure just picking the one you'd like to share on. Our meeting is a theme meeting so we don't really have a discussion leader. Just come planning to chat for five or ten minutes about your favorite essay from this great collection. A little discussion might reasonably follow. What made you pick that particular essay? What did you really like about it? Is there anything you wish Lewis had handled a little differently?  Below is our schedule for the rest of the year.

SCHEDULE
May 14: Theme: Your favorite essay from God In The Dock (pick one and give us 5-10 minutes on why it is your favorite)

Lewis wrote to Sr. Penelope's translation of Athanasius: On the Incarnation available on the internet in its entirety at http://www.spurgeon.org/~phil/history/ath-inc.htm  The introduction is five pages long.  Come and share on either the introduction or Sr. Penelope's translation (5-10 min. or so)
