Why Christians Care about Creation

Lent Lectures: Issues of Faith

Wednesdays 2.30pm in the Cathedral quire and available as a recording afterwards

A weekly series of talks hosted by the Dean and Canons with a series of speakers helping us to reflect on issues of the day through the eyes of faith. Each talk will be followed by the opportunity for questions.

Jo Chamberlain is the National Environment Officer for the Church of England, a role she has been in for the last 6 years. Prior to that, she worked for Christian Aid, an organisation working with those at the forefront of the impacts of climate breakdown. The world around us is in trouble, and people are not taking care of God’s good creation. Christians are called to love God and to love our neighbour. This talk aims to explore what that means when we look and see a world confronted by rising global temperatures, accelerating loss of nature and an expanding problem of plastic waste.
