Reason to Hope - David Osborne - diskuze

Is hope just a feeling? Or something more powerful?In a world grappling with climate change, rampant pollution and collapsing ecosystems, hope can seem like a luxury – a temporary mood easily extinguished. We try to stay positive, but the question remains of whether there is any fundamental reason to hope. David Osborne takes us on a profound exploration that challenges superficial thinking. Merging insights from science and religion, counselling and campaigning, pastoral work and parenthood, he digs beneath the surface to examine: • The nature of the world we are part of• Why societies and individuals act the way they do• The rich tapestry of spiritual experience and insight• How ancient Hebrew and Christian scriptures can be interpreted into our own understanding of the world and society• How their wisdom is relevant to the question of hope in the face of today’s urgent problemsHope is shown to be a substantial, energising force which can move us beyond fragile optimism. This book suggests how we can tap into the vital energy we need not just to cope but to work for change. It shows a way to move beyond despair to an empowering hope.
