Life after doom Book Study
Life After Doom
A Book Study with Wanda Stahl & Allen Ewing-Merrill
Mondays 6:00-8:00 pm (a combination of in-person and online sessions)
Join others from the HopeGateWay community for a 9-session study of Life After Doom: Wisdom and Courage for a World Falling Apart, by celebrated author Brian McLaren. As we wade more deeply into the realities of climate change, and as the instability of our systems and structures becomes more apparent, we are confronted with many possibilities for what the future may hold — and all those scenarios, to varying degrees, hold suffering and darkness as well as potential for healing and transformation. The work of holding these unknown worlds while actively working toward a better future can be lonely, especially when the scaffolding of our systems feels inadequate at best and actively harmful at worst. How do we look honestly at what is while envisioning a way forward for ourselves, our communities, and our world?
Join us for the conversation.
First Session: Monday, March 31 • 6:30-8:00 pm at HopeGateWay
Online Sessions: Mondays, April 14, April 28, May 19, June 2, June 16, June 30, and July 14 • 6:30-8:00 pm
Final Session: Monday, July 28 (tentative) • 6:30-8:00 pm • in person (location TBA)
If you're interested in participating, please sign up here. We encourage you to obtain your own copy of the book at your favorite bookstore. Please let Wanda or Allen know if you need assistance in locating a book.
