Join us for this five-week study will focus on theological and practical responses to climate change from a Christian perspective. We will outline the causes and effects of climate change, examine biblical and theological foundations, and then discussion practical responses for individuals, the church, and society.
Rising global temperatures, changing weather patterns, more wildfires. All these changes in climate point to human culture and activities.
How are Christians to understand and practically respond to climate change?
Does scripture or theology have anything useful to say?
Can the church be a site of practical changes?
Is there hope in the midst of environmental degradation?
The course will consist of online discussions, lectures, video illustrations, suggestions for further study, and practical takeaways. By the end of this study, you will understand some of the problems with our modern worldview and its misinterpretation of the Christian tradition. But you should also feel hope as Christians and other people of good will are committed to preserving and taking take of God’s good creation.
