The woman’s book club at our parish is reading a book by him called "And the Angels Were Silent" for their April reading.

I couldn’t stand being there because it felt like a new age atmosphere. We were silent for awhile. She asked us what we thought almost like she was hoping for a positive response. Do I have reason to be concerned or am I overreacting?"
