McLaren offers a deeply insightful exploration of how to navigate our turbulent times with wisdom, resilience, and love.

For over 25 years, McLaren has been at the forefront of discussions on the intersection of religious faith and contemporary culture. In this timely work, he addresses the catastrophic failures of our political and religious leaders to tackle pressing issues such as ecological overshoot, economic injustice, and the looming threat of civilizational collapse.

McLaren defines doom as the unsettling feeling that humanity has created a mess of our civilization and planet, with too few caring enough to instigate meaningful change.

Blending insights from philosophers, poets, scientists, and theologians, Life After Doom delves into the complexities of hope, the necessity of grief, and the urgent need for new ways of thinking, being, and belonging.

If you're looking for a guide to help you, your family, and your communities find courage and resilience in these challenging times, this book is an essential read.

Diana Butler Bass, author of Christianity After Religion, praises McLaren as a pastor, teacher, therapist, and prophet who awakens our capacity to dream and act courageously for the future.
