Summer Beloved Community Book Study
Our July, August, and September Beloved Community Book Study turns to the wise words of Howard Thurman in Jesus and the Disinherited, with a new Foreword by The Rev. Dr. Kelly Brown Douglas.
“Famously known as the text that Martin Luther King Jr. sought inspiration from in the days leading up to the Montgomery bus boycott, Howard Thurman’s Jesus and the Disinherited helped shape the civil rights movement and changed our nation’s history forever.”
July 1: forewords & Chapter 1
August 5: Chapters 2&3
September 2: Chapters 4 & 5 & Epilogue
Reading the book is not mandatory for this book study! Whether you read a few pages or the whole book, our conversation will be better with you there. Just prepare for spoilers! We’ll talk about the book—our favorite parts, where we see ourselves, and what this book has to do with us, our faith communities, and our diocese.
Join us to discuss texts vital to our understanding of the beloved community in the Diocese of Southern Ohio and beyond.
