We are partnering with our friends Central Vineyard and Venn for this special evening hosted here at Valley. The evening is free, but please register on the Venn website for this event HERE. 

As Christians, what would a greater imagination for how we are to respond to the current climate crisis look like? Together, we face an urgent question: how might we learn to “walk beautifully upon the earth?” (John Moriarty). To this question, the Christian tradition has wise, rich, and wonderful things to say. But too few of us are familiar with its treasures. We are, in Christopher Thompson’s phrase, “indoor Christians.” We don’t see, feel, experience, or care for the natural world as Christian faith would have us. We need to take our faith outside.

We’ll gather for nibbles, before Andrew Shamy leads us in conversation around the Christian vision of Creation. Together we’ll ask, how might we recover a sense of wonder in our disenchanted age, how might we learn to live wisely and well upon the earth?
