Let Justice Roll Down
All are invited to join Presbyterians for Earth Care for a virtual monthly study of:
Let Justice Roll Down: God’s Call to Care for Neighbors and All Creation
by Patricia K. Tull
Suggestions for Leaders by Rebecca Barnes
Patricia K. Tull, author of the 2024–2025 PW/Horizons Bible study Let
Justice Roll Down: God’s Call to Care for Neighbors and All Creation,
describes her call for creation justice in this way: “When I first learned of the climate crisis, I wondered how a biblical scholar with few practical skills could help and found my purpose in learning about ecology and teaching people of faith what I could. Such is not everyone’s skillset or desire, but each of us has something to do with all our hearts.”

Readers will learn about ecological systems, the challenges we face in this time of accelerated climate change, and the possibilities available to address or counter the impact of human-made stress on our environment. Further, readers will explore theological questions that point us to act and engage, in small and large ways.

Courtenay’s passion for environmental issues is the third leg of a stool that also includes family and God. She moderated her church’s Environmental Justice Committee, founded a local interfaith green group, and partners with PA IPL to share resources with regional faith institutions. A recent seminary graduate with a certificate in environmental theology, she currently serves Tree of Life Church in Springfield, PA, as a transitional pastor. And, for her, there is nothing like a sunrise walk on the beach!
Lucy sees God as artist and composer. The trees are theme and variation, the ocean is a symphony, and the platypus is fusion jazz. Years ago, she served a congregation that was surrounded by a national forest. It was easy to see the beauty of Creation, but hard to see the effects of pollution and climate change from there. She is a parish associate at Shandon Presbyterian Church in Columbia, SC, and a graduate of Columbia Theological Seminary, Decatur, GA.
