Upcoming 2026 Series
Faithful in a Changing Climate
Four-part series for Season of Creation - Coming September 2026
As followers of Jesus, we're called to love God, love our neighbours, and care for God's good creation. But what does that look like in a world experiencing more frequent fires, floods, heatwaves, biodiversity loss, and other climate impacts? Across Australia and the globe, Christians are wrestling with questions about climate change, hope, justice, discipleship, and the future. Through thoughtful conversations with a diverse range of guests, this series explores what it means to faithfully follow Jesus in a changing climate. Together, we'll ask: What kind of Christians - and what kind of Church - are we called to be in a future shaped by climate change?
