THANK GOD FOR EVOLUTION, THURSDAY FEBRUARY 28TH 7PM With Evolutionary Evangelist Michael Dowd
Come hear Reverend Michael Dowd speak about a life-changing new conversation about creation. Current science shows that evolution is not meaningless blind chance, it is now possible to view evolution as a spiritual process. "Thank God for Evolution!" presents practical methods for using evolutionary insights to achieve greater personal fulfillment, and shows how aligning with evolutionary trends can guide activists and others hoping to make your world a better place.
"At last someone who understands that all of reality is sacred and science is our method of comprehending it." Lee Hartwell, 2001 Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine
The Rev. Michael Dowd is an itinerant "evolutionary evangelist" and the author of Thank God for Evolution! How the Marriage of Science and Religion Will Transform Your Life and Our World (Tulsa: Council Oak Books, Nov: 2007). His previous book, written in 1991, was EarthSpirit: A Handbook for Nurturing an Ecological Christianity (Twenty-Third Publications, ISBN 0-89622-479-1). It was inspired by the writings of cultural historian Thomas Berry, physicist Brian Swimme, and deep ecologist Joanna Macy. During the 1980s and 90s, Michael pastored three United Church of Christ congregations, worked with Unitarian Universalist, Jewish, Roman Catholic, Protestant, New Thought and Evangelical leaders across America on environmental, peace, and justice issues, and he managed government-funded Sustainable Lifestyle Campaigns on both coasts.
Since April 2002, Dowd and his wife Connie Barlow, an author of popular science books, have lived entirely "on the road," teaching and preaching what they call "the marriage of science and religion for personal and planetary well-being"[citation needed] in churches and living rooms as well as in public and private schools all across North America.
