virtual BOOK clubs
Spring/Summer 2023 book clubs begin the week of May 15.
CFBU's book clubs are for people just like YOU! This is a place for biblical Christians who want to openly and honestly discuss the issues we face in our culture today, without the fear of being racially shamed or canceled. Join us!
About the Groups:
Length: 6 weeks, 90 minutes per week
Cost: $40 + the cost of the book
The live experience is limited to 25 participants.
Each book group will have a live discussion leader. Please see times and days listed in descriptions below. Once you have registered and paid, you will receive a confirmation. The week before the group, you will be emailed instructions to join the virtual classroom on Google. Weekly discussions will be held on Zoom.
Book clubs are a time of asking questions and discussing the week‘s reading. Each meeting will be recorded and uploaded to the private virtual Classroom, in case you need to miss a week.
All book clubs also offer a virtual experience, which allows participants to access recordings from the live experience.

JUSTICE SELECTION
Raising Victims
The Pernicious Rise of Critical Race Theory
Registration now open.
This group will go through Leonydus Johnson's book, Raising Victims. Public schools are indoctrinating a generation of children to see themselves as either victims of systemic racial oppression or members of a wicked oppressor class. Johnson, a black writer and podcaster, exposes the poisonous ideology embedded in “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” programs and shows parents what they can do to stop it.
Discussion Leader: Kevin Briggins
Day/Time: Tuesdays, 4:30 PM (PT)/7:30 PM (ET)
Dates: May 16, 23, 30, June 6, 13, 20
GENDER SELECTION
Irreversible Damage
The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters
Registration now open.
This group will read and discuss Abigail Shrier's groundbreaking book, Irreversible Damage. Until just a few years ago, gender dysphoria—severe discomfort in one’s biological sex—was vanishingly rare, and afflicted males almost exclusively. But today whole groups of female friends are coming out as “transgender.” These are girls who had never experienced any discomfort in their biological sex until they heard a coming-out story from a speaker at a school assembly or discovered the internet community of trans “influencers.” Unsuspecting parents are awakening to find their daughters in thrall to hip trans YouTube stars and “gender-affirming” educators and therapists who push life-changing interventions on young girls.
Discussion Leader: Emily Bontrager
Day/Time: Mondays, 4:30 PM (PT)/7:30 PM (ET)
Dates: May 15, 22, 29, June 5, 12, 19
GENDER SELECTION
The Toxic War on Masculinity
How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes
Registration now open.
This group will read and discuss the groundbreaking new book, The Toxic War on Masculinity. Bestselling author Nancy Pearcey leads readers on a fascinating excursion through American history to discover why the script for masculinity turned toxic--and how to fix it. She also examines sociological research, showing how authentically committed Christian men test out as the most loving and engaged husbands and fathers. They have the lowest rates of divorce and domestic violence of any group in America. This group will begin the week of July 3.
Discussion Leader: Pastor Brandon Rhodes
Day/Time: Mondays, 4:30 PM (PT)/7:30 PM (ET)
Dates: July 3, 10, 17, 24, 31 & August 7
Fall book clubs will begin in September 2023.
