Scripture, Land, and Neighborhoods with Ellen Davis

Neighborhoods are not only part of a wider town or city, but also part of an environmental ecosystem. How can we build neighborhoods that care for these ecosystems? How can we build towns and cities where humans care for their environment, nurturing God’s gift of creation, rather than acting destructively toward it? Ellen Davis of Duke Divinity School joins the podcast to discuss how scriptures approach such questions. Check out her books including Wondrous Depth: Preaching the Old Testament and Scripture, Culture, and Agriculture. More information on the sustainable burial practice of aquamation is available here.
