Book Discussion: In the Eye of the Storm

In the Eye of the Storm: Swept to the Center by God

Wednesday, September 2, 2009

12:30p to 1:30p

Come join your friends and co-workers and share your thoughts about In the Eye of the Storm: Swept to the Center by God by Gene Robinson, the Ninth Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire and the first openly gay, non-celibate priest to be ordained a bishop in a major Christian denomination. In this book, he reflects on the controversy surrounding his election and what it has meant for the Episcopal Church, while also illuminating the faith that has animated his life and his work helping the poor, the marginalized and the disenfranchised. Bishop Robinson will also be presenting on obstacles to opportunity and prosperity in America at Momentum 2009, Tides’ annual gathering of forward-thinking activists, philanthropists, and social entrepreneurs.
