Un-Trivializing God:
Reality as Thou

The Book of Joy – by the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu
In April 2015, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama had a conversation that looked back on their long lives to answer one question: How do we find joy in the face of life’s inevitable suffering? We get to listen in as these two brilliant, spiritual giants explore the nature of true joy and confront each of the obstacles to joy.
White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo
With this book, subtitled Why It’s So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism, we are given a stirring call of conscious to join the ranks of white antiracist thinkers who are thinking deeply about how the intertwined threads of social destiny and political prescription bind our white identity to moral neutrality and cultural universality. This book challenges us to social maturity as we both face the world we’ve made, and seek to remake it for those who do not have our privilege.
How to Be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi
Antiracism is a transformative concept that reorients and reenergizes the conversation about racism. Kendi will take us on a widening journey of antiracist ideas that will help us see all forms of racism clearly, while challenging us to work to oppose them in ourselves and others.
Finding God in the Movies
One of the most difficult challenges of 2020...is theaters closed and no new movies coming out. But here at St. Francis we do not let tribulations stop us. Come join Pastor Jim as we discover cinematic gems from years past and discover how God has been present through the years.
