PFC Discussion Series

Freethinkers Book Club

Many of us love to read, but it is even better when we have people to talk with about what we are reading. The Freethinkers Book Club brings people together to discuss books across a broad range of topics, including history, current events, philosophy, science, and sometimes just a great novel worth sharing.
