Dear UBC,

​

It was a beautiful Feast of Creation yesterday! I’m so glad we celebrated this festival day together with our Orthodox siblings in faith and numerous others around the world.

 

I wanted to use this space to share with you two articles that I wrote that continue the themes of the sermon for those who want to delve a little deeper into theological narratives of ecological relationality.

 

The article is titled, “Practicing Multispecies Relationality,” published in Christian Ethics Today. (Some of you may have picked up a hard copy of the journal on the table at church the last couple of weeks.)

 

If you’re interested in a second article that also gets to some of the opening themes in yesterday’s sermon, you might check out, “Three Reorientations for Communities Facing Planetary Polycrisis.”

 

Take good care and see you Sunday.

 

Peace,

Cody
