These days you may be an expert at working from ho These days you may be an expert at working from home, in all your PJ-clad glory. ๐Ÿ˜‰ This is a friendly 2021 reminder to get outside when you can, and if possible, to step into rhythms that remind you of your love for creation.

Thanks, @thewildlifetrusts, for these hot tips (adapted from their 'Wild workday from home' resource)!

"Mental health needs to be an integral part of any "Mental health needs to be an integral part of any climate change survival strategy, requiring funding, and ethics of equity and care, and widespread awareness."

Britt Wray, in a short TED talk (just over 7 minutes! Link in bio), rings off many psychological impacts of climate change. As we continue our work in creation care together, remember to take care of yourself and create spaces and rhythms of rest. ๐Ÿค— Share your tips for good rest with all of us as well!

โ„ Composting isn't typically imagined in a winte โ„ Composting isn't typically imagined in a winter setting, but it's actually a great place to reflect on your faith!

"For Christians, winter composting offers more than just higher output and more benefits for our gardens in the spring. The act of frozen composting is also an opportunity to reflect on our faith. Winter composting does not involve much activity; instead, it is all about waiting. In this way, composting in colder temperatures is like one long Easter Saturday."

"I like to say I grew up in a John Denver song in "I like to say I grew up in a John Denver song in the Shenandoah Valley. My dad was engaged in slowly rewilding the place we lived, and I watched a small forest and bird sanctuary emerge over the course of my childhood. When I was in university, I learned how fish farming was poisoning the water for the fish it supported and I could not reconcile that dissonance. I discerned a call to leadership amongst Christians to engage caring for the world even as it cares for us."

๐Ÿ“ฐ Matt Humphrey, our Director of Theological Education, was recently featured in @natobserver speaking about climate change, environmental stewardship, and the wonder of the world. Take a look at the link in our bio!
