This summer we’re working our way through Orthodoxy by G.K. Chesterton. This is our very first week, so you found us just in time! We’re looking at “Introduction: In Defence of Everything Else.” This is how each week works: you read the assigned chapter, I do a podcast where I summarise the main themes, explain things, make some observations, and then ask some questions which you all can discuss here in the comments, or on my Twitter, Instagram, or Facebook pages. If you’re feeling really cool, you might even want to start your own book club and discuss the chapters with a friend over tea and coffee in real life.
Sound good? If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.
You can get the book on Project Gutenberg for free. Or, if you prefer a physical copy, pretty much any edition will work on Amazon. And I’ve been told the Kindle versions are only fifty cents! So find a copy, and let’s dive in!
