About

Pastor, podcaster, and cultural analyst Paul Anleitner helps us understand a historic shift happening in our culture--and how this search for meaning will soon impact everything from philosophy to pop culture.
Vibe shifts. Religious Renaissances. Meaning Crises. Top Gun Reboots. Metamodernism. You listening to Creed again. It's all connected. Cynicism is out, sincerity is back, and there's a new generation looking for hope in unexpected places. We're beginning to find ourselves moving from despair to meaning. As a burned-out culture begins to reject the emptiness of endless deconstruction, people are searching for guidance to rebuild meaning, identity, and community. Based on a True Story uniquely combines social analysis, pop-culture fun, philosophical insight, and spiritual wisdom offering readers a fun and thought-provoking journey into the heart of our culture.
As exhausted people begin to move beyond cynicism and deconstruction, a new cultural sincerity and religious renewal is beginning to take root in the rubble. Based on a True Story is a roadmap for those exhausted by cynicism, desiring to understand where our culture is heading, and longing to reconnect with a meaningful story for their life. Anleitner offers readers a vision of hope-inviting them to rediscover the sacred in the mundane and take part in the rebuilding of their lives and surrounding culture within a guiding story that can hold truth, goodness, and beauty once again. With intellectual clarity, cutting-edge insight, and a great sense of humor, this is a book for skeptics, seekers, and Christian believers alike-a timely invitation to rediscover what it means to truly live.
