Jana Riess to address Miller-Eccles Group

September 10, 2010

Scholar, author, Dialogue Board member and master-tweeter Jana Riess will speak to gatherings of the Miller-Eccles Study Group in Claremont and Orange County, California on September 17th and 18th. Jana is the author of such diverse titles as Mormonism for Dummies, American Pilgrimage, The Spiritual Traveler: Boston and New England; The Book of Mormon: Selections Annotated and Explained; and What Would Buffy Do?
Her current projects include a book called Flunking Sainthood, about a year of attempting a spiritual practice from a different religion each month, a new blog at Beliefnet, and tweeting the Bible–condensing the entire Bible into a series of (hilarious!) 140-character communications through Twitter. It is this “Twible” project she’ll be discussing with the Miller-Eccles Group. More information here.
