Fall Book Discussion – Hope: A User’s Manual

2024 September 4
by Kelli Whitman

Join us for a fall book discussion of “Hope: A User’s Manual” by MaryAnn McKibben Dana. 

We will meet Wednesdays from 4:30pm-5:30pm starting on September 25th.

If you would like to join us via ZOOM rather than in the building, send us a message. 

About the book

What hope is, what hope isn’t, and how to find it in hopeless times.

How do we cultivate hope to face each day? How do we find the energy to persevere, knowing things don’t always work out OK, no matter what the platitudes say? How do we pursue the work of justice, knowing that the task is too big for any of us?

This book addresses these questions. It’s MaryAnn’s attempt to write herself back into a sense of hope after a grueling few years of life and world events.

One thing is certain: real hope demands that we do something with it. That we live it out. That we use hope to participate in a bigger story playing out behind the bleak world we see on the news or in our social media feeds every day.
