Summary Quote from Speaker
“I am convinced that humanity and all of earth-community is facing the most urgent crisis. The church has an opportunity to pioneer a new humanity that can emerge as we rise to embrace the great work of our time, justice for the most vulnerable in a world in ecological crisis.” Dave Rhoads
