MP writes: "Could you please tell me who Max Lucado is and what his belief system is? 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 do not belong to it, but I have seen that he writes for Hallmark cards and I know he wrote "The Christmas Candle" movie, which sounded like a good Christmas movie. Are his writings harmless or is he New Age?"
