Subject: [Dialogue] Book suggestions



I'm?a member of DOC?class in Bartlesville, OK?that chooses and discusses books during the church school hour every Sunday morning. This has been our practice for the past 40 or so years. It's been fun and enlightening to say the least. We are just finishing the Living the Questions 2.0 DVD based series (all 21 one sessions). Its been good and now?we are ready to choose a new?book (or books) to study. 

In recent years we?have read and discussed?books by Walter Wink, Karin Armstrong, Richard Rohr, Marcus Borg, Parker Palmer, Anthony De Mello, etc. I'm looking for titles of?good and challenging books along these lines that some of you may have read. What would you suggest?

Roger
