Singles Program with Reverend Clemens Reinke

Discussion Leader: The Rev. Dr. Clemens I. Reinke, Pastor at Grace Lutheran Church in Teaneck.

During the past few decades, society has increasingly become aware of our natural environment and the damage that human activity has caused for centuries.  But we rarely approach our environmental concerns from a faith perspective. These presentations and discussions will show how our Judeo-Christian culture and attitudes toward the world around us has both contributed to the environmental crisis we find ourselves in and can offer solutions and new directions towards living out at faithful ecology.

March 29:       Session 1 — The controversy over Creation and Salvation History in Biblical Interpretation.

April 5:           Session 2 — How have biblical and theological interpretation shaped our relationship toward the environment over time?

April 12:         Session 3 — Where do we go from here? How can Scripture inform us in the quest to live out a Faithful Ecology?

At the end, we may discuss the possibility of planning activities within our environment here in Teaneck.
