Join us for our annual summer book club on Fridays throughout the summer, beginning Friday, June 5th!
We will be reading “The Quest For Community: A Study in the Ethics of Order & Freedom” by Robert Nisbet. “The Quest For Community” stands among the most important social critiques ever written. Robert Nisbet’s study explores how individualism and statism have flourished while the primary sources of human community — the family, neighborhoods, the church, and voluntary organizations — have grown weaker. First published in 1953, this timeless work is a seminal contribution to the understanding of the spiritual and intellectual crisis of Western society.
