Do I Stay Christian?: A Guide for the Doubters, the Disappointed, and the Disillusioned

Do I Stay Christian?: A Guide for the Doubters, the Disappointed, and the Disillusioned

Brian D. McLaren

St. Martin's Essentials
2022
sidottu
Dubbed "a heroic gate-crasher" by New York Times bestselling author Glennon Doyle, Brian D. McLaren explores reasons to leave or stay within the church and if so how... "Brian's new book on remaining Christian knocks it out of the ballpark in terms of framing and naming the questions. I cannot stop reading it. Thank you, Brian "--Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM, founder of the Center for Action and Contemplation, author of The Universal Christ "Any thoughtful Christian has been asking the questions McLaren tackles here, but many of us are afraid to voice them aloud. In Do I Stay Christian? we're gifted a gentle guide who opens ideas and voices the questions we cannot, naming our frustration, fear, and hesitant hope."--Rev. Dr. Amy Butler, former Senior Minister, The Riverside Church; Founder, Invested Faith Do I Stay Christian? addresses in public the powerful question that surprising numbers of people--including pastors, priests, and other religious leaders--are asking in private. Picking up where Faith After Doubt leaves off, Do I Stay Christian? is not McLaren's attempt to persuade Christians to dig in their heels or run for the exit. Instead, he combines his own experience with that of thousands of people who have confided in him over the years to help readers make a responsible, honest, ethical decision about their religious identity. There is a way to say both yes and no to the question of staying Christian, McLaren says, by shifting the focus from whether we stay Christian to how we stay human. If Do I Stay Christian? is the question you're asking--or if it's a question that someone you love is asking--this is the book you've been waiting for.

Faith After Doubt: Why Your Beliefs Stopped Working and What to Do about It

Faith After Doubt: Why Your Beliefs Stopped Working and What to Do about It

Brian D. McLaren

St. Martin's Essentials
2022
nidottu
From the author of A New Kind of Christianity comes a bold proposal: only doubt can save the world--and your faith. "An honest, vital conversation... will help you live fuller and breathe easier. He illuminates the reality that belief and doubt are not opposites" --Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of Love Warrior "Important book...Helps you find a deeper and wiser faith " --Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM, author of The Universal Christ Sixty-five million adults in the U.S. have dropped out of active church attendance and about 2.7 million more are leaving every year. Faith After Doubt is for the millions of people around the world who feel that their faith is falling apart. Using his own story and the stories of a diverse group of struggling believers, Brian D. McLaren, a former pastor and now an author, speaker, and activist shows how old assumptions are being challenged in nearly every area of human life, not just theology and spirituality. He proposes a four-stage model of faith development in which questions and doubt are not the enemy of faith, but rather a portal to a more mature and fruitful kind of faith. The four stages--Simplicity, Complexity, Perplexity, and Harmony--offer a path forward that can help sincere and thoughtful people leave behind unnecessary baggage and intensify their commitment to what matters most.

Life After Doom: Wisdom and Courage for a World Falling Apart

Life After Doom: Wisdom and Courage for a World Falling Apart

Brian D. McLaren

St. Martin's Essentials
2024
sidottu
"As rich and thoughtful as all of Brian McLaren's work, but with a particular urgency " --Bill McKibben"Riveting. Challenging. Brave. Devastating. Hopeful." --Rabbi Sharon Brous, IKAR, author of The Amen EffectA deeply insightful exploration of how to live with wisdom, resilience and love in our turbulent times For the last quarter-century, author and activist Brian D. McLaren has been writing at the intersection of religious faith and contemporary culture. In Life After Doom, he engages with the catastrophic failure of both our religious and political leaders to address the dominant realities of our time: ecological overshoot, economic injustice, and the increasing likelihood of civilizational collapse. McLaren defines doom as the "un-peaceful, uneasy, unwanted feeling" that "we humans have made a mess of our civilization and our planet, and not enough of us seem to care enough to change deeply enough or quickly enough to save ourselves." Blending insights from philosophers, poets, scientists, and theologians, Life After Doom explores the complexity of hope, the necessity of grief, and the need for new ways of thinking, becoming, and belonging in turbulent times. If you want to help yourself, your family, and the communities to which you belong to find courage and resilience for the deeply challenging times that are upon us -- this is the book you need right now.

The Skies Will Be Falling: Future Technologies and Techniques for the Disruption and Diminishment of Self-Sustainment Cycles in Tropical Cyclonic Syst

The Skies Will Be Falling: Future Technologies and Techniques for the Disruption and Diminishment of Self-Sustainment Cycles in Tropical Cyclonic Syst

Brian D. Biggs

nidottu
This paper will examine three possible weather modification technologies and techniques to disrupt and diminish the destructive power of tropical cyclones in the 2030 timeframe: specifically tuned microwaves from space-based solar power stations, biodegradable monomolecular surface materials ("monolayers"), and moisture-absorbing materials. Various scenarios along with analysis of several experiments and simulations will reveal that the basic technology exists today for hurricane modification within in the next thirty years. This paper will also discuss enabling technologies such as improved computer modeling, better forecasting, and more precise data collection. Finally, substantial issues regarding liability, international treaties, and domestic politics must be addressed in order for this possible future to become a reality.

He's writing for the school paper and his articles on vampires, werewolves, strange creatures, ghosts, and urban legends have gained him some popularity. His job at the gas station is earning him money toward buying his first car. One night, a chance encounter with a werewolf that seemed to crawl out of his books turned his simple life upside down. His brush with the creature pushes him into a strange new world full of monsters that threaten him, his family, and friends. He comes to terms with his new fate with a circle of new friends that help guide him through his journey to fight a coven of vampires set on revenge. We learn about Marek as he documents the last few months of his life prior to being shackled to a wall in a dank basement and meeting the monsters that he thought only existed in books and nightmares while he awaits his fate.
