MLUC Book Groups

Welcome to Main Line Unitarian Church’s book groups! We offer four unique reading communities to nurture your mind and spirit. Each group provides a welcoming space for thoughtful discussion, personal growth, and community connection. Whether you’re interested in meditation practices, literary insights, nonfiction exploration, or theological questions, we have a group that will engage your curiosity and deepen your understanding.

  • Insight Book Group: Open to all interested MLUC readers, this group meets on the third Thursday of each month. Participants engage with thought-provoking fiction and literature, exploring the human condition through diverse stories and perspectives.
  • Nonfiction Book Group: Dive into compelling true stories, biographies, historical accounts, and informative works that expand our understanding of the world. This group embraces a wide range of nonfiction topics, encouraging critical thinking and informed discussion.
  • Theology Explorers: Join fellow seekers in discussing spiritual topics and materials in search of truth, meaning, and spiritual growth. This group examines various theological perspectives and philosophical questions in a supportive, open-minded environment.
