Book Study: The Gospel According to James Baldwin

Tuesdays, February 20 and 27 and March 5, 12, 19, and 26 6:30-8:00PM | Cherrywood Center | 605 East 38 1/2 Street
In his new book, The Gospel According to James Baldwin: What America’s Great Prophet Can Teach Us about Life, Love, and Identity, author and professor Greg Garrett, wants to introduce a new generation of readers to the writer of short stories, novels, and plays who believed America can do better. Baldwin’s fiction, essays, criticism, and dramatic writing offer searing critiques of religion, culture, and discrimination that remain timely. Still, in his writings, and in the witness of his life, Baldwin holds out the possibility of hope and espouses the primacy of love despite the difficulties of a present moment. Join Pastor Cathy Stone to explore this unique portrait of Baldwin.
