It has become common to tell kids that they’re going to die from climate change. If a heatwave doesn’t get them then a wildfire will. Or a hurricane, a flood, or mass starvation. Incredibly, many of us hardly blink before telling our children this story. It shouldn’t, then, come as a surprise that most young people think their future is in peril. There is an intense feeling of anxiety and dread about what the planet has in store for us. “Not the End of the World” (Hannah Ritchie)

Drawing on his thoughts in Finding the Language of Grace: Rediscovering Transcendence, Dom Christopher explores a language more hopeful than the language of doom and despair which hangs over our expectations of many areas of contemporary life.
