Our Daily Bread:
A Theology and Practice of Sustainable Living

Scripture tells us that Jesus taught his followers to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.” 

Dutifully we pray these words, but do we do so as a sentimental attachment to Jesus or out of a deep belief that this prayer has something important to teach us about our daily lives?  What is the connection between our daily bread and our daily living?  What does this connection mean for our relationships with each other, with our global neighbors, and with creation?

Join us at Convocation & Pastors’ School as we explore the idea and practice of sustainable living with author Wendell Berry, environmentalist Wes Jackson, and theologian Norman Wirzba. 

 

 

 

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
