Introduction: Why Barbarians?

Welcome to the GCC Barbarian Book Group blog! This will be a place where we can ask each other questions, make announcements and whatever.

The name of this group comes from the first book we discussed: "The Barbarian Way" by Erwin Raphael McManus. We aim to be barbaric with respect to what society expects of us, how the Western church wants to define us and what the popular culture tries to mold us into. Our desire is to let none of this get in the way of our dedication to Jesus and our ability to follow Him.

Our current book is "A Glimpse of Jesus: The Stranger to Self-Hatred" by Brennan Manning. Our unofficial class mascot is Martin Van Buren... for no particular reason. :-)
