Manifesto

We will read nonfiction for strong backbones; fairy tales and lore for robust imaginations; satire for quick wit. We will read science fiction for a roadmap; poetry for beauty; fiction for pleasure. We will read Homer and Tolkien and everything inbetween (and before and after!). We will read what we agree with; we will read what we don’t, knowing that this is how we nurture intellect. We will feast on words, knowing that Christ is the Word and language was given to humanity as a gift, never to be extinguished or stamped out.
