On the Nightstand: A Two-Fer

I’m going to my home state of South Dakota this month to travel with my beloved aunt, visit with cousins and friends from college, and attend my 50th (gulp!) high school reunion.

I’m figuring the plane travel will give me extra time for reading, so I have books from two friends on my nightstand this month:

The Dark Guest by Sarah Hamaker, is a Christian suspense novel with echoes of life during the Cold War. Sarah and I know each other through Capital Christian Writers Fellowship, and I’m looking forward to diving into one of her novels.

Monastery and High Cross: The Forgotten Eastern Roots of Irish Christianity by Connie Marshner delves into Irish Christianity before St. Patrick and posits that the earliest Irish Christians came from the Mediterranean. Connie and I know each other through a Catholic lay organization and at one point owned condos in the same building. I know her to be a meticulous researcher.

What’s on your nightstand?
