We all need a little nudge to get us out of our reading ruts. Seminary is a great place to be pushed to read new things. But not everyone will want to pursue a seminary degree. Instead, join us on this episode to get an overview of some of the best books that Josh from Oregon read during his time in seminary. Come join the reading party!

What can fiction teach us about the Christian walk? Aside from the pure enjoyment of good fiction, what does it have to teach us? Why are humans drawn to tell and hear stories? What fiction creators tend to tell the best stories? Let’s dive into the fascinating world of fiction and discover what potential it has for helping us to go “further up and further in” to the Christian life.

What is the goal of spiritual formation? Is dying to self the goal? Is it a means to a goal? How can we follow the example of Jesus and even Paul in dying to ourselves? And more importantly, what would it look like in our lives if we actually did it? Let’s wrestle through this together and then discuss it on our social media pages below.
