My experience leading blog book clubs started a few years ago at a metropolitan church where many women worked high-powered jobs while others were housebound with small children. Through our blog book club, we built community, read interesting books and learned great lessons. Soon, women from around the world learned about our blog book club and joined in the conversation.
