ISSUES CLASS: “READING THE BIBLE FOR THE SAKE OF THE PLANET” • ROOM 7 & STREAMING ON DERRYPRES.ORG, YOUTUBE AND FACEBOOK • LED BY JULIA O’BRIEN FROM LANCASTER THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY • WEEK 1 OF 2

What does it mean to read the Bible in the context of the environmental crisis of our time? While earlier generations of concerned Christians could imagine themselves as caretakers or stewards of creation, we recognize that we now live on a planet that has already been changed by human actions. In these sessions, we’ll talk about the limitations of earlier ways of interpreting the Bible for the environment and experiment with some new ways of reading biblical texts for the sake of the planet.
