Coming this Summer to the 213 Listening Room!

Hello, friends!

It’s been pretty quiet here on the homefront, but we’ll be opening up the Listening Room this summer for a few special events that you won’t want to miss!

Thursday, July 6-
A Night With Orphaned Believers

Join us for our first ever author event with Seattle-based writer Sara Billups. Her new book, Orphaned Believers, is “part spiritual memoir of an apocalyptic childhood and part commentary on growing up as an evangelical kid during the culture wars.”

Orphaned Believers follows the journey of a generation of Christian exiles reckoning with the tradition that raised them and searching for a new way to participate in the story of God. Because for all the baggage, we still belong, and a bigger, more beautiful story awaits.”

Reserve your seat for a conversation with Billups about Orphaned Believers and her reflections on publishing a book as a first-time author. Light drinks and snacks will be provided. *Donations will be accepted to help cover the cost.

Tickets are available here.

(Get your copy of the book here or request it from your local bookseller before the event!)
