DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR "HIDING IN THE LIGHT"

"I guess no one instantly recognizes what's abnormal about her home life when it's always been her normal." (A quote from page 143 reminded me of some things we talked about at our last meeting.). When do you think Rifqa realized her home life wasn't right?

Talk about decisions made in the book.....her decision to lie to her parents and go to church, etc. with her friend, her decision to run away, Brian, Beverly and others who chose to help her, the authorities' decision to send her back to Ohio, etc.  Do you agree or disagree with any of the choices made?

Do you think this book was well written?  Why or why not?

Have you read anything online about Rifqa that could enhance our reading that you'd like to share with the group?  If so, what?

If you could ask her anything, what would you ask her?

Do you think her story brings glory to Christ? If so, how?

What do you think the phrase "hiding in the light" means in the context of this book?  Is it a fitting title?

Who would you recommend the book to?  Why?
