Ok, congrats to new members! YAY!
A reminder to them to watch us and make sure we are watching you. If you want your name to the list please contact me or Rev. Wally. NOT both of us, since we might double post.
I still need to get the communication thing between mods efficiently. (I am so sorry I forgot to tell you specks is taking a break Rev. Wally.) Due to my college stuff. (I had a recent OMG exam that almost killed my thinking capacity for overthinking the questions.) I have not been on the group as often, only limited to about one day per week. Trying to keep the 411's every week, and the newsletters every month. If I cannot do a 411, do not panic. (Have to talk to Rev. Wally if I cannot do a newsletter.)
Remember, we are not proffesionals, and we do things asap when time permits.
Concerning the book study:
Everyone agrees, but does not have the time to do it. Including me! X3
However, I think we might build a book suggestion list. There are two particular books I recommend to everyone, and if you do read them, I will post a discussion journal for it (if anyone has read them.
Here they are:
Mere Christianity - by C.S. Lewis (You SHOULD know who he is if you are a furry, PSST, ASLAN!)
What's So Amazing About Grace? - by Philip Yancy
Why these books? Well, Mere Christianity is for those who are not sure if scripture is "reliable" and a way that he "makes sense of Christianity" using worldviews and sound reasoning which can help those who do not believe or comprehend a divine being but want to believe, "except there rational and intelligence gets in the way".
And I have to say something about Philip Yancy's book. If you are gay and Christian, please read the chapter "Grace Healed Eyes". I highly recommend this book, the chapter is important, but so is the rest of the book. I will also mention two movies used in this text:
-Babbet's Feast
-Les Meserables
I know most know of the second, but maybe not the first. Check Wikipedia or the movie out to see what you think. And those that complain about finances.
I think that exausts the annoucnement, ttyl!

And considering Aslan is like the Narnian version of Jesus I'm not surprised he'd write this book x3
