Christianity Through a Different Lens Book Series: Pastrix by Nadia Bolz Weber
This Book series will explore perspectives of Christianity through a different lens. We will be reading and discussing books that cover: the fundamental truths about Jesus and learning to recognize the Creator's presence all around us and in everyone we meet; a personal journey of loving, leaving, and finding the church once again; and a remarkable story of an unconventional life of faith. Each book recounts the countless and beautiful ways that God shows up in ordinary parts of our daily lives.
"PASTRIX: The Cranky, Beautiful Faith of a Sinner & Saint" By Nadia Bolz-Webber.
This is a book for people who hunger for a bit of hope that doesn't come from vapid consumerism or navel-gazing; for women who talk too loudly and guys who love chick clicks; for the gay man who loves Jesus and won't allow himself to be shunned by the church. In short, this book is for every thinking misfit suspicious of institutionalized religion but still seeking transcendence and mystery. Pastrix is wildly entertaining, sardonically irreverent, and deeply resonant - a messy, beautiful, prayer - and profanity-laden narrative about an unconventional life of faith.
