“Practice resurrection.”

New here? Start with these pieces that sketch what I mean by “Ecology of the Cross.”

  • What is the Ecology of the Cross?
    An overview paper that lays out the integral ecology of the cross and why kenosis + ecological intentionality matter.
  • Process Ecology of the Cross
    A deeper dive into communion, kenosis, fire, and planetary politics through a process-relational lens.
  • Why Edith Stein matters here
    How The Science of the Cross became the metaphysical and spiritual backbone of this whole project.
  • Hildegard, Viriditas, and the Cross
    Greening, viriditas, and how a medieval mystic’s vision feeds an ecological theology of the cross.
  • Ecological Intentionality
    The AAR paper that frames “ecological intentionality” as performing peace beyond human boundaries.
