Creation Care, Climate Change, and Healthy Discourse in Christian Communities
November 17, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
A renowned scientist will bring research on the health effects of global environmental change. A theologian and leader of the Lausanne/World Evangelical Alliance Creation Care Network will bring biblical and international perspective. And an institutional leadership veteran and conflict resolution expert will bring strategic wisdom about ways to engage in challenging conversations. This unique event foregrounds science, the church, and caring communication, courtesy of a Loka Initiative program to constructively support church leaders and their communities to engage in creation care and climate activities.
You might be either curious or passionate about creation care. You might be a leader or member of a church trying to have meaningful, non-divisive conversations about climate change. The presentations and roundtable discussion at this event will approach the subject of creation care and climate change holistically, as well as bring forward conflict resolution tools to help us have the types of constructive conversations we long to have in this divisive time. We hope you will join us as we focus on a topic that touches all of us—spiritually, environmentally, and communally.
