Our Publications – Library

During the week our church library is housed in the Resource Centre on the lower floor. Here we have books written by leading scholars such as Karen Armstrong, Tom Harper, Marcus Borg, John Shelby Spong, Henri Nouwen, John Dominic Crossan, and Thich Nhat Hanh. The library contains Compact Disk Recordings (CDs) of lectures and other events sponsored by the Theological Studies Committee and the Church. In addition there are novels, biographies, special interest books and children's picture and story books. We attempt to keep the library current and invite suggestions.

Sunday mornings after service a mobile unit is available in the lower auditorium where people are encouraged to browse and borrow.
