Stack of books

Book Club

Booking it together since 2020…

Most third Wednesdays of the month, our members gather on Zoom to discuss a new book focusing on some cross-section of faith, sexuality, and masculinity. We discuss the book of the month from 8-9:30pm ET, and it’s always a fruitful discussion!

Upcoming Book Clubs

Our Book Club Entries

With each of our Book Club gatherings, we aim to read a diverse array of authors, perspectives, topics, genres, and theologies as we relate our own navigations with faith, sexuality, and masculinity. We may not always theologically align with what we read, but we’ve never had a bad Book Club discussion! Perhaps some of the books we’ve read over the years will spark some connection and prove helpful to you?
