Register at: https://www.fumcsd.org/sdscs-oct-26 San Diego School of Christian Studies invites you to come and hear our expert guest: Professor Peter Bolland, Philosophy and Humanities Department Chair at Southwestern College About the Topic: If the core Christian message is radical care for all who suffer, and not merely personal salvation, then what happens when we expand the meaning of “neighbor” to include all creation – the plants and animals, and biosphere that supports them? In the face of our current climate crisis, we are challenged more urgently than ever – do our religious ideologies draw our attention to the hereafter, or to the here and now? How might Christianity contribute to the crucial work of natural restoration? What good is caring for others if we do not also care for the world that sustains all of our lives? About the Speaker: Professor Peter Bolland is the Philosophy and Humanities Department Chair at Southwestern College where he teaches world religions, Asian philosophy, world mythology, and ethics. A columnist for Unity Magazine and author of The Seven Stone Path: An Everyday Journey to Wisdom, Professor Bolland is a frequent speaker and workshop facilitator at a wide variety of churches (including FUMCSD), spiritual centers, and learning centers like San Diego Oasis, The Osher Institute of Life Long Learning at SDSU, the Chopra Center, the San Diego Vedanta Monastery, and more.
