With powerful industries based on extractive and exploitative practices, our economy has been a train barreling toward increasing environmental disaster. The fate of humanity and our planet can no longer continue on this track, but crucial questions remain: What is a sustainable economy? What will it look like? What must change? What costs might it entail? And, how will it be achieved? For people of faith, these questions are engaged from a place that prioritizes matters of equity, justice, and the common good. To help us think through these issues, this webinar will feature Edith Rasell who recently authored the book, “The Way of Abundance: Economic Justice in Scripture and Society.”
Even if you cannot make the webinar at its scheduled time, still sign-up, and we will send you a link to a recording of it.
This monthly installment of Creation Justice Webinars is co-hosted by the Rev. Dr. Brooks Berndt who serves as the Minister of Environmental Justice for the United Church of Christ and the Rev. Michael Malcom who serves as the Executive Director for Alabama Interfaith Power & Light and the People’s Justice Council.
