Why Wendell Berry Still Matters for People of Faith

Theologian Norman Wirzba reflects on how writer and farmer Wendell Berry reshaped his understanding of faith, Creation, and humanity’s relationship to the land.

This thoughtful reflection explores a deeply Lutheran understanding of God’s presence in Creation and Christ’s work of reconciliation for all things. Read the original essay from Blessed Tomorrow.
