Speaking of Liturgy: Education and Fonnation through and for Worship

(Excerpt) On Palm Sunday eighteen days ago I paid a visit to the country of my youth. I was visiting my parents on the East Coast and so on that day I worshiped with them at their church, First Presbyterian. I\u27ve never belonged to that particular congregation, but the denominational ethos was familiar. Visiting my family of origin, I had reentered my denomination of origin as well

It\u27s about Time: Practices of Rest and Worship in Church and Culture

(Excerpt) At this institute on Worship, Culture, and Catholicity: Remembering the Future I may focus a little more on culture than have the other speakers, a choice perhaps appropriate for a church historian and student of American religious life. Let me begin, therefore, with a statement from an anthropologist: Time talks, says Edward T. Hall in his book The Silent Language. It speaks more plainly than words. The message it conveys comes through loud and clear. Because it is manipulated less consciously, it is subject to less distortion than the spoken language. It can shout the truth where words lie

Integrating Ecosystem Services Into Urban Park Planning & Design

Urban parks, which include a variety of green, brown, and gray infrastructure (e.g. greenways, native desert parks, plazas), are key providers of ecosystem services within cities. Given the importance of urban ecosystem services to the social and ecological health of urban ecosystems, there is a growing consensus that ecosystem service considerations should be integrated into urban park planning, policy, and design. Yet this integration is limited by a lack of relevant, accessible tools and standards for implementation. To address these deficiencies the present study developed the Urban Park Ecosystem Services (UPES) tool. UPES an open-source, geographically contextualized planning tool and site design guidelines for systematically integrating multiple ecosystem service considerations into urban park planning. To maximize relevancy and accessibility to practitioners, the tool was based on an existing planning ordinance, already in use by planners. UPES was customized to an arid city using Phoenix, Arizona as a case study, but can be modified for use in other cities based on their specific geographic conditions and policy goals. UPES provides a starting point and foundation for the integration of ecosystem service considerations into urban park planning and design to maximize their benefits across an urbanized region

American Environmentalism and the City: An Ecosystem Services Perspective

This study traces the evolution of eight influential American environmental organizations and their relationship with, and conceptualizations of, ‘the city’ and ‘nature.’ Guided by the ecosystem services framework, the organizations’ urban-based initiatives were analyzed to determine what types of ecosystem services they emphasized and what the implications are for cities and environmental health. Results from historical, content, and interview analyses reveal the potential of the ecosystem services framework to unite the interests and efforts of multiple stakeholders, including urbanists, ecologists, economists, and environmentalists in a way that enhances both urban quality of life and conservation efforts overall
