G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936) was a prolific British author and columnist, a convert to the Catholic Faith and a married layman whose cause for canonization has just been opened. I often allude to him because his often-witty wisdom is enduringly insightful for our world and souls today.
Thursday, October 10th I will be hosting a gathering of The G.K. Chesterton Club of La Crosse in Eastman. All are welcome. We will meet at the rectory around 7:10 PM for conversation and beverages. Even if you have never heard of Chesterton before, a fruitful experience is guaranteed. These are the readings we will be discussing:
“The Continuing Power of Christianity” (3.5 pgs.)
“Self-Expression and Political Views” (3 pgs.)
“The Alternative to the Family” (3.5 pgs.)
Alternatively, here are the readings as a PDF file.
