Rachel leads Sarah and Erin in a lively romp through their latest Lutheran Ladies’ Book Club selection, Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre.
What does this book written by a woman about a woman surrounded by women teach us about what it means to be a woman? How comfortable are we really with Jane and Rochester’s May/December, boss/employee romance? How well do the book’s many religious moments and messages fit within a Lutheran worldview? What difference does it make in a person’s life to know how to forgive others — quickly, freely, and completely?
At the end of the episode, the Ladies announce their next book club pick: Jonathan Haidt’s The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness.
