From Lament to Action: Why We Should All Engage with Eco-Church

Abstract

Rev. Lydia Cook, Angelican Priest, Ottery St. Mary, England - Rev. Cook will explore the theological, spiritual and practical role of Christian churches in the care of creation. She will look at what insights the Scriptures give to help navigate a Christian response to the environmental crisis we find ourselves living in and ask how we can (re)discover a spirituality of creation that speaks into people\u27s lives in a meaningful way, rebuilding connections with those of little faith or none. Finally Lydia will look at practical ways that churches can make a difference to their local community and environment through the ARocha eco church scheme.https://scholarworks.boisestate.edu/ideas_of_nature_gallery/1036/thumbnail.jp
