Planting Trees
from Imagination Redeemed · host Anselm Society
What does it mean to “practice resurrection,” as Wendell Berry put it?It’s easy to look at the chaos and barrenness of the world and think we can’t make much of a difference. At least not without being some kind of superhero. What good is planting a tree in a wasteland? In this episode, the gang explores a different vision, provided by the story, “The Man Who Planted Trees,” by Jean Giono. Because maybe, just maybe, there’s a way forward.
