This book by Brian McLaren bears the subtitle, “Wisdom and Courage for a World Falling Apart.” In the introduction, McLaren writes: When you dance with doom, doom changes you…It can scare you and exhaust you and leave you paralyzed in despondency, cynicism, and bitterness. Doom can win and life can lose. But the dance can also change you for the better, leaving you more humble and honest, more thoughtful and creative, more compassionate and courageous…more human and alive. I’m ready for this kind of dance; how about you?
