After three months of seminary I felt that I needed a bit of diversion and an occassional different focus to discussion. Now, don't think that my brain doesn't get an adequate workout, because it does. I just needed something different, so I contacted a few women on campus, wives of students, and organized a book group.
We met and organized on Sunday. The book we've selected to read first is "Same Kind of Different as Me." I highly recommend it. The book is the real life story of two men, unlikely to form a friendship, but do. One is a modern-day slave, the other an art dealer. Their differences span the horizon from race, education, income and at times faith. What brings them together is one truly amazing woman and a faith unknown to either of them.
Bottom line, differences are only on the surface. The title says it all!
