Transforming Climates: Preaching Environmental Justice Conference |
|
|
|
For clergy and lay leaders, "Transforming Climates: Preaching Environmental Justice" will explore how preaching changes in the face of the catastrophic failures of colonialist and exploitative systems. In lectures, workshops, and discussion groups, participants will develop tools for an embodied, attentive, and place-based approach to preaching that invites transformation of racial and environmental injustices.
