So, we had a very cozy meeting at Mary's house this past Saturday. I think that the consensus on the book was that Don Piper is a little full of himself and his wife deserves sainthood! Of course, we attributed that to the "Texan male" in him. :)
We also discussed the relatively same experience that people who are near-death tell about. Also much discussion on
- whether he had a pulse and the medical possibilities,
- if the book should have been named "the purpose of my life"
- that we felt that he helped people with terminal illnesses to not be afraid
We went off on many tangents as always - no Vivian there to keep us off the slippery slope I guess. :)
The next book is going to be I Still Believe by Kurt Bruner. He interviews naysayers to Christianity to see why they are choosing not to believe. Lots of short anecdotes in this book... not one long story. The meeting will be at my house in February - maybe the 21st or 28th?
As always - feel free to weigh in on this. I think that food WILL be part of the agenda because we just seem to be an eating kind of group. :)
