Welcome to the June 2016 edition of the Christian Fiction Book Club Connection. Thanks for stopping by!

Today I’m providing information on Christian fiction discussions scheduled to take place around the web this month. I’m also featuring a handful of recently released Christian fiction titles for which a discussion guide is available, either included in the book itself or on the author’s or publisher’s web site.
