The topic of climate change makes the news everyday. Yet, few within the missions community are talking about this matter. John Ferch is an exception.
I recently attended the annual Evangelical Missiological Society where I listened to John give a presentation on his experience in Alaska. He provided a fresh and unique perspective, one I thought you needed to hear. Regardless of the causative factors of climate change, things are changing. And some changes are greatly affecting communities and ministries.
John kindly agreed to come on this last episode of season five. Here are a few of the questions we discuss:
Why should missionaries be concerned about climate change?
What is the church’s responsibility toward people displaced by climate change?
How is climate change impacting life in rural Alaska?
How might the church succeed where governments have failed in responding to climate crises?
John provided me with a copy of his Evangelical Missiological Society Paper. I posted it HERE.
