Is staying informed all the time, healthy or sane for an individual or a community?.  Join in a great conversation with  Dr Jefferey Bilbro, editor in Chief of the The Front Porch Republic, about his excellent book Reading the Times A Literary and Theological Inquiry into the News., published by Inter Varsity Press   Dr Bilbro examines the question of how staying informed shapes us both spiritual and communally.   He offers advice on how to counteract common ills tied to the poison of media obsession   in order to cultivate healthier ways of reading and being.
