Now you can get your questions answered, and meet people of a wide variety of faiths, in this group led by the authors of the bestselling book THE FAITH CLUB. The book tells the story of Priscilla, Ranya, and Suzanne: three women of three different faiths trying urgently to understand each other in the wake of September 11 and its aftermath. They’re not afraid to ask each other the hard questions about the other faiths — and you shouldn’t be either. THE FAITH CLUB is the November 2007 featured book of the Exploring Faith Book Club.

    Exploring Faith Book Club: The Party Faithful
    Status: Member
    Description: How are you feeling about how religion is addressed within politics? Author Amy Sullivan shares some of her research and ideas in her new book, THE PARTY FAITHFUL about the matter. In the book, Sullivan tells the story of how the Democratic Party distanced itself from religion and came close to losing its soul in the process. More importantly, it highlights essential changes that need to be made--and are beginning to be made--before the Democratic Party can respond to the very real moral concerns of voters, and win the White House. THE PARTY FAITHFUL is the February 2008 featured book for the Exploring Faith Book Club. Sign up now and join the conversation!
