You will find these ideas on the CLN by searching “book clubs.” Let’s embrace our current church environments. I recently “attended” the live Baptist Association of Christian Educators annual Zoom conference. Soon, you will find links to some of the sessions on the CLN.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt;">One of the sessions was facilitated by Savannah Kimberlin, a Barna consultant. Her focus was on young adults. One of her points dealt with the reality that “hybrid” will continue for a longtime. That means churches will be doing both in-person and digital. They found that 63 percent are interested in digital formats for spiritual formation and discipleship.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:12pt;">Let’s consider our book club opportunities as spiritual formation and discipleship for our church families and communities. What are you doing now with offering book clubs online? </span></p></div>
