Life After Doom

Over the last few years, writer and pastor Brian McLaren has sensed a widespread emotional shift among growing numbers of people. More and more friends, colleagues, students, and readers confess their sense of futility, their feelings of frustration bordering on despair. They feel that human civilization has passed certain tipping points and that a tide of doom is inexorably rising. This feeling creates a deep inner divide, a tension between a sincere and hopeful commitment to action for the common good on the one hand, and on the other, a feeling that no actions can prevent the arrival of an undesirable or even dystopian future. Life After Doom will address the challenge of living well and maintaining resilience in the face of nations, ecosystems, economies, religions, and other institutions in disarray. The book asks what hope looks like when hope seems irrational, what faith looks like when cynicism seems more plausible, and what love looks like when hate becomes more popular.
