On Reading “Unsafe” Authors – Part 2

On episode SIXTY-SIX of Let the Bird Fly! the guys (sans Wade) continue their discussion from Episode 65 about reading “unsafe” books and authors. They are once again joined by Rev. Dr. Mark Paustian, who teaches at Martin Luther College, in New Ulm, MN.

If you missed the last episode, you may want to head over there and check it out first as this is definitely a continuation of that conversation. (But we’re not here to tell you what to do or how to do it, so you do what you want to do.)

Since this was an episode about authors and books, we’ve got a list of some of the books we discussed in the episode (as well as a couple from the previous episode).

• Practice in Christianity by Søren Kierkegaard
  
• Sophie’s World: A Novel About the History of Philosophy by Jostein Gaarder
• Life Together: The Classic Exploration of Christian in Community by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
