#042 – Jason Kirk on "Hell Is A World Without You"

  • Summary

  • Writer and journalist Jason Kirk's debut novel, Hell is a World Without You, was released in December of 2023 to wide acclaim. Hell is a World Without You tells the story of Isaac Siena, an Evangelical teenager living in Pennsylvania at the turn of the millennium who struggles with the dual-challenges of adolescence and his faith. The novel is drawn from elements of Kirk's own life and is set against the backdrop of an America in the wake of Y2K and on the verge of 9/11. Kirk is a senior editor for The Athletic and cohosts the podcast Vacation Bible School with his wife Emily. He joined Kelly and John to talk about drawing from his own experiences to write a novel that would speak to people both within and without the youth evangelical experience, his faith journey, and who is going to win the Super Bowl (it's the Bills, apparently - take it to the bank).
