Caring for Creation

Fr. Bryan Owen
August 16, 2019
Commentary, Ethics, The Episcopal Church
Our unique task as stewards and caretakers of “this fragile earth, our island home,” as Eucharistic Prayer C puts it, is to participate in the unfolding of God’s new creation inaugurated in the resurrection of Jesus.

Wendell Berry, Poet and Prophet

Chip Prehn
March 27, 2019
Commentary, Ethics, The Episcopal Church
Wendell Berry, this great Bard — as great an American voice as Thoreau’s or Whitman’s — assumes that the reality before and all around us in nature is infinitely complex and therefore cannot be fully comprehended by any human intellect.

In the Beginning: A Theological Foundation for Environmental Ethics

Will Brown
March 22, 2019
Ethics, The Episcopal Church
Why did God create the heavens and the earth, human beings, and all the rest?

Sir Roger Scruton: Conserving the world

Andrew Petiprin
October 18, 2016
Commentary, The Episcopal Church
The earth is fundamentally a religious place — a place of belonging and of worship. It is a place of holy sacrifice, with its highest expression in the Christian sacraments, which “rehearse the solution that previous explorations of the sacred could not find, which is the self-sacrifice of God” (p. 20).

A catechism of Nature (1): Reason and the destiny of animal life

Will Brown
March 3, 2016
Commentary
Reason, the thing that separates us from brute beasts, does not liberate us from animality, but it liberates animality itself, for the actualization of a potential that cannot be actualized without reason.

Baptism and environmental stewardship

David Ney
February 19, 2016
Anglican Church of Canada, Commentary
Canadian Anglicans have added a vow about environmentalism to their baptismal covenant. I worry that making environmental activism fundamental to Christian baptism obscures what is more fundamental to it.

Dirty oil, dirty hands? Divestment, ethics, and the Anglican Church of Canada

Dane Neufeld
January 26, 2016
Anglican Church of Canada, Commentary
Divestment seems to amount to little more than moral posturing, however well intended, when the world needs genuine, thoughtful, and powerful action on the environment now more than ever.

Climate justice: insights from African Anglican theologians

Bishop Graham Kings
December 2, 2015
Commentary
We see an interweaving of three of our five Marks of Mission, when we consider deeply not just climate change, but climate justice, and when we learn from the voices of our brothers and sisters in the global south.
