FPC Book Club
The FPC Book Club is an excellent opportunity for church members who enjoy reading to connect over shared literary interests. Participants read and discuss books, which may include Christian literature, inspirational works, fiction, or non-fiction that align with the values and themes of the church. The book club fosters a sense of intellectual and spiritual growth while building strong bonds among members through meaningful discussions.
The FPC Book Club meets monthly on the second Thursday of the month at 2:00 PM in the Parlor Room. This group selects books based on member interests and recommendations. Check here for current and past reading selections.
Book Selections
About the Current Book Selection:
The book selection for July is Red Scare: Blacklists, McCarthyism, and the Making of Modern America by Clay Risen. The author, an award winning writer of history and a New York Times reporter, tells the story of McCarthyism and the Red Scare based in part on newly declassified sources. He brings to life the politics, patriotism, courage and delirium of those years by sharing the lives and experiences of known historical figures affected by these scare tactics and blacklisting. Red Scare takes the reader to a fuller understanding of what the country went through in a time of moral questioning, conspiracy mongering, and political and cultural backlash that speaks directly to the divisiveness of our contemporary times.
