About

 

A wisdom-centric archive on faith, spirit, biodiversity, and the environment.  

AllCreation.org was founded by Chris Searles of BioIntegrity.net and Rev. Tom VandeStadt of the Congregational Church of Austin, UCC. It is produced quarterly, at the times of the equinoxes and solstices - times that have been noted and held sacred by humans from many traditions in all times and places. We are committed to highlighting diverse voices, in hopes of a more balanced conversation, and one in which the dominant culture can listen to and learn from the wisdom of all people, the collective wisdom it will take to help humans be part of creation, nurture it, and continue to be nurtured by it. We hope you enjoy this site and find it useful.

 At AllCreation.org we seek to address a number of the pressing issues humanity now faces on Earth: loss of biodiversity, the species extinction crisis, climate change, sustainability, the transition away from fossil fuels, the protection and restoration of eco systems, the intersection of climate justice and economic, racial, and gender justice, etc.  

We seek to address these issues from the perspective of Earth’s human wisdom traditions, both ancient and contemporary.  Wisdom expresses itself in many forms, including religion, philosophy, science, art, literature, music, and popular culture.  Our authors address our pressing issues from one or more wisdom tradition, and whenever possible, integrate or bring into conversation several different expressions of wisdom.  

We hope you find our pieces thought-provoking, and we hope they inspire you to be wise agents of positive transformation. 

We're looking for people to help us grow. Contact us to submit your content, questions, and ideas. Thanks for visiting!
