IE Network Conference Keynote Address
Faith Encounters the Energy Crisis
Sunday, October 25, 2009
Location: 2nd Floor Open Area
2:00 - 3:00 PM
Title of Session:
Faith Encounters the Energy Crisis
The world is facing a series of ecological crises caused by industrial and post-industrial society and our overuse of fossil fuels and other natural resources. My presentation will ask the question, ‘what kind of human beings will we be as we go through the crisis,' and outline values for a new way of life.

Since 2005 I have been engaged in a project, Spirituality and Ecological Hope, sponsored by the Center for New Creation. Author of 2 books, including "Living Beyond the End of the World"
