While talking up our blog, Melissa of Little Cabbages was in tune with the spirit--the spirit of this blog, that is:
I have always longed to fellowship with a group of women who continued to function beyond the usual "church lady" schtick. A good friend and I have often toyed with the idea of starting a weekly reading club where we could read and discuss the great books through the filter of a Christian worldview. Sadly, we have been unable to conjure up a very few faces other than our own. Not because we are elitist snobs, but because of those "blank stares and quizzical looks." Does anyone think beyond what's for dinner? Are Christian mothers and wives content to goosestep their way through their faith spouting platitudes and reading the latest feelgood literature from the Christian bookstore window? Are we as a church passing on such benign and powerless apologetics to our children?
Tonight I'm going to make myself a hot chocolate and a bagel and read Intellectuelle from it's first post to it's last!
You go, girl! I love that she shares her literal food for thought as well :)
