We're praying for another kind of kingdom to come that’s rooted in love and justice and lifting all people.” —Dr. William Barber in this new NPR segment on the work of the Center for Public Theology & Public Policy at YDS.

The Yale Divinity School Labyrinth, Ecological Renewal & Spiritual Journeys with Christopher Freimuth

The Living Village is one major way YDS is confronting the #climatecrisis and fostering care for creation. But there is so much more—including the ecological leadership of many of our alums. Today we celebrate the work of one such graduate: Norman Wirzba '88 M.A.R., a distinguished professor at Duke and a leading scholar working at the intersections of theology, philosophy, ecology, and agrarian and environmental studies.
