This week, Damian sits down with Rev. Megan Madsen from Spokane, Washington, for an honest, funny, and deeply reflective conversation about faith, creation, and the new United Methodist Social Principles — especially the section “Community of All Creation.” Neither Damian nor Megan are climate scientists — they’re pastors trying to figure out how faith connects with the world God made. Together they wrestle with what it means to live in right relationship with creation, why confession might be a holy starting point for climate conversations, and how environmental justice is inseparable from social justice. Their talk takes an honest detour into American politics and why many U.S. Christians still struggle to accept human-caused climate change. Megan also shares how her congregation partners with a church in El Salvador — and how global corporations like Coca-Cola impact local communities and their access to clean water. It’s a conversation about faith, hope, and creation — full of curiosity, laughter, and challenge. 📖Read along: “Community of All Creation” – Social Principles of The United Methodist Church (2024 Revision)
