A Crucifixion or a Wedding?

I am a big fan of Pitre.  We have been re-listening to this book during “book reading” during Morning Prayer and the book is reemphasizing to me how our faith if so much more than just words.  Its roots bring to life and as the light is focused on the Jewish Faith, the foundation of the faith of the early church.   Whether you read the book or listen to it, it will have you murmmering aha or saying “I didn’t know that!”  Pitre Books will be available soon in our library.  Read them!
