SUMMARY:Lydia Wylie-Kellermann Preaching
DESCRIPTION:“What does it mean to be a parent in the age of climate change? We are living in an era of climate collapse. We feel it in small ways: when the snow falls less or the cherry blossoms bloom too early. And in large ways: when our streets flood and entire towns burn to the ground. Climate anxiety touches nearly everything we do\, but perhaps nothing so intimately as our parenting. It leaves an impossible task for those of us raising children. What do we tell our kids when the air quality is too bad to go ride bikes? What skills will they need if systems collapse? And what do we do with the fear\, grief\, and anger we feel as parents?”\n\n\nWe’re thrilled to have Lydia Wylie-Kellermann (she/her) to speak to these questions at our worship service on August 18. Lydia is a writer\, editor\, activist\, and mother who lives in Bangor\, Pennsylvania. She is the director of Kirkridge Retreat and Study Center. We are privileged to be a part of the tour for her recently released book “This Sweet Earth: Walking with our Children in a Time of Climate Collapse.”\n\n\nHere’s more from the description of her book:“Parent\, activist\, and writer Lydia Wylie-Kellermann wrestles with these questions and dares to argue that while the future remains unknown\, there is still awe and wonder\, love and struggle\, gratitude and overwhelming joy to be found. As we raise our children toward this uncertain future\, Wylie-Kellermann helps us see that those same children shift our posture\, slow us down\, and invite us to fall in love with the ground on which we stand. At this turning point in humanity\, we can choose to shift our lives away from death-dealing profit systems toward life-giving\, generous systems. Here is the moment when we must choose to fight like hell for climate justice. And we can do it by nurturing a deeper relationship with this sweet earth in all its beauty\, wonder\, and wisdom\, walking alongside our children.”
