2010 GO Conference book...

And the winner is...
The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down by Anne Fadiman! This book chronicles the cultural clash that occurs when Lia Lee, a young Hmong immigrant with epilepsy, receives medical treatment in America. This book clearly portrays the misunderstandings that can easily occur when members of two different cultures relate.

Reading The Spirit Catch You and You Fall Down will stimulate our thinking about how to contextualize the living hope of the gospel in other cultures. Pick up your copy today at your favorite book store and get ready to share your thoughts at the discussion group on Saturday, Novembe 13!
