Sweeney's on the Creek discussion

1. Find a picture of Rio de Janeiro's famous statue of the Christ (Corcovado's Cristo Redentor), and study it for a short time. How does this statue contribute to a positive or negative view of Christ?

2. Page 8 - "The fog swirls around the mountain's tip, making him visible one moment and invisible the next." Now read the passages of the Transfiguration in Matthew 17:1-9, and discuss similarities.

3. Discuss: "It is a grim job, this looking out over humanity." (p 8).

4. "Spiritual experiences are not up here. They're down there." (p9) What does this say about where we will find Christ?

So - have we chosen a book to read? Did I miss it??

I must be doing something wrong. When you go to this group, so you see the book "Coffee, tea, and holy water" ?

Nope. Not when I click on go read the comments from the email I got. Maybe if I get here some other way.

OK, I see it if I go to the Goodreads home page, then to the Community Groups section. Somehow I guess I missed the initial announcement on Feb. 4. It looks like an interesting book, though, especially since I'm leaving for China, Korea, and Japan on Sunday.

OK I've made a few changes, and added a folder with the name of the book. Name of book is also in the main group page under "currently reading." In the folder will be sets of questions related to various parts of the book.
