Deep Green Faith Workshop:
Rediscovering the Green Roots of Christian Faith
The Center for Deep Green Faith invites you to rediscover Christianity’s ecological roots in this transformative one-day workshop with Robin Gottfried and John Gatta.
Drawing on monastic wisdom and contemplative practice, we’ll explore how growth in virtue includes our relationship with all creation.
Together we’ll examine how core Christian doctrines ground our care for the earth, moving environmental concern from the margins to the center of faithful living.
Experience how deepening your connection with creation deepens your connection with God.
