SUMMARY:John Cobb & Friends Gathering: Sharon Delgado
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Divestment from Fossil Fuels as Climate Change Strategy \n\n\n\nPresenters: Sharon Delgado \n\n\n\nThe Reverend Sharon Delgado is a retired United Methodist pastor\, author\, and longtime activist and nonviolence practitioner\, whose introduction to John Cobb and process theology in the 1980s helped shape her theology and ministry. Sharon is Convener of Fossil Free UMC\, which advocates for the United Methodist Church to divest from fossil fuels. She is a member of the Coordinating Committee of the United Methodist Creation Justice Movement\, which works across annual conferences to coordinate actions related to creation justice. Sharon names the invisible powers that influence human behavior and that are embodied in today’s domination system\, and points in the direction of both personal and social transformation. Find out more and follow her blog\, Progressive Christian Social Action\, at sharondelgado.org.   \n\n\n\nSharon is author of Shaking the Gates of Hell (2007\, 2020)\, Love in a Time of Climate Change (2017) and The Cross in the Midst of Creation (2022). An updated Second Edition of Love in a Time of Climate Change will be released in the spring of 2025. The book is a Wesleyan approach to climate change\, which uses scripture\, tradition\, reason\, and experience to explore the issue. The inside cover of the first edition includes an endorsement by John Cobb\, who wrote: \n\n\n\n\n“Sharon Delgado makes it clear that we\, especially we who stand in the Wesleyan tradition\, cannot choose between being scriptural in the fullest sense and activity to save as much as possible from destruction through climate change. There is no tension between biblical preaching and preaching on the overwhelming\, life-determining issues surrounding climate change. Let’s stop hemming and hawing and work with God to save God’s creation.”  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo receive the Zoom info for this gathering\, click the Going button and enter your name and email.  \n\n\n\n\n\nIf you would like to receive regular announcements and updates about activities and events at the Cobb Institute\, please join our list of Friends. \n\n\n\nCan’t make it to the live session?
