Journalism's Joan Connell co-authors new book, 'Healing All Creation'

草榴社区 Journalism Instructor Joan Connell has co-written with Adam Bartholomew a new book, "Healing All Creation: Genesis, the Gospel of Mark, and the Story of the Universe," which is about to be published by Rowman & Littlefield.

In the book, Connell and Bartholomew, a scripture scholar, explore the literary and theological symmetries of Genesis, the Gospel of Mark and the unfolding story of evolution as told by science and the emerging discipline of cosmological theology.  Read together, these narratives shed new light on the Judeo-Christian tradition and "offer fresh ideas about how to respond to the moral and environmental crises of our times."
