Environmental Justice and the Practices of the Church
Session Description
In this lecture, Dr. Noah Toly explores how the Christian church can address environmental justice by reframing the inevitable, complex trade-offs of modern life as "the tragic." He argues that by accepting these finite limitations rather than seeking self-justification, the church is freed to engage in responsible, sacrificial actions that prioritize the good of others and creation.
