Team Purple: Scholars

Go to book or film study
request zoom link

The Scholars, or Team Purple, include those who engage with creation care through scholarship: intellectual, theological understandings of creation care.

Some might be interested in hearing and understanding the philosophical and intellectual ideas of creation care, including land sustainability, use of chemicals and pollution, species protection, global racism and the impact on the Global South, and climate change. This group may bring in speakers, panels, discussion groups, or read books or view movies for discussion.

Scroll down for info on current and upcoming book and film studies!

Join us for a Team Purple book study on Sunday, December 21 at 4:00 p.m., where we’ll discuss the book North to the Future: An Offline Adventure through the Changing Wilds of Alaska by Ben Weissenbach! We’ll meet in person in the FBC Sojourners Room as well as virtually on Zoom.

North to the Future is available from Raven Book Store here in Lawrence (on order, ships in 1-5 days) or from other booksellers. It may also be available at Lawrence Public Library.
