Join the Riverside BookClub monthly for conversation around chosen books.
Join us online on Saturday, December 14, at 11:00 a.m. for the December Book Club discussion, led by Riversider David King, as we delve into Life After Doom: Wisdom and Courage for a World Falling Apart by Brian D. McLaren.
For over 25 years, McLaren has been a prominent voice at the intersection of religious faith and contemporary culture. In this book, he confronts the ecological, economic, and social crises defining our era, reflecting on the failures of leadership and the pervasive sense of “doom” many feel—a realization that humanity has created a global mess with little resolve to change.
Drawing from philosophers, poets, scientists, and theologians, McLaren offers a nuanced exploration of hope, grief, and the transformative power of rethinking how we live, connect, and act in turbulent times. This book is a timely guide for cultivating resilience, courage, and wisdom in facing today’s challenges. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage in a thought-provoking conversation that inspires action and community.
