TGC Book Club

What is Book Club?

The TGC Book Club exists to help get good books on diverse topics into the minds and conversations of our church members. Every other month, we’ll read a book and then gather to discuss it together on a Sunday morning. Anyone who can read is welcome to join us! Books will be available at a heavily discounted price.

What is the reading schedule for 2024?

If you want to grab a book and discuss, here is the schedule for this year. Participate in as many as you’d like!

Kevin DeYoung has written an accessible introduction to the Bible that answers important questions raised by both Christians and non-Christians. This book will help you understand what the Bible says about itself and encourage you to read and believe what it says―confident that it truly is God's Word.
