Connecting with each other in meaningful conversation can make your day more meaningful. One dynamic and welcoming small group at St. Andrew is the Pastor’s Book Study. Alternating between St. Andrew pastors, share in conversation, learning and community building as we take up together David Zahl’s Low Anthropology - The Unlikely Key to a Gracious View of Others (and Yourself).

Overview of the book: Most of us spend our days feeling like we’re the only one with problems, while everyone else has their act together. But the sooner we realize that everyone struggles like we do, the sooner we can show grace to ourselves and others. In Low Anthropology, author and theologian David Zahl explores how our ideas about human nature influences our expectations on friendship, work, marriage, and politics. He offers a liberating view of human nature, sin, and grace, showing why the good news of Christianity is both urgent and appealing. By embracing a more accurate view of human beings, we can discover true and lasting hope.  

Date/Time: Thursdays for nine weeks from 9-10 AM in Room 207 beginning September 21, 2023.

Books: Available for purchase at the reception desk for $17 or from your favorite bookseller.
