“The Art of Being Terrified: The Visions of AldousHuxley, George Orwell, and Cormac McCarthy.” 

How often do you lie awake at night with fear for the future? Brave New World,1984, and The Road are all dystopian novels that attempt to influence our thinkingand behavior. This is accomplished through terrifying visions of what humanity couldface. These visions, somewhat indirectly, invite Christians to search harder for Christand His goodness as they face a world of tragedy and uncertainty.
