Martha Park

4.9/5 (33951 ratings)

Description:In the vein of Lisa Wells’s Believers, World Without End circles the connections between climate change and faith in the fear and fascination of the end of the world.When Martha Park’s father announced he was retiring from the ministry after forty-two years, she moved home to Memphis to attend his United Methodist church for his last year in the pulpit. She hoped to encounter a more certain sense of herself as secular or religious. Instead, she became increasingly compelled by uncertainty itself, curious about whether doubt could be a kind of faith, one that more closely echoed the world itself, one marked by loss, beauty, and constant change.In illustrated essays, World Without End explores the intersections of faith, motherhood, and the climate crisis across the South, from man-made wetlands in Arkansas to conservation cemeteries in South Carolina; from a full-scale replica of Noah’s Ark in Kentucky to the reenactment of the Scopes Monkey Trial. Park chronicles the ways the faith she was raised in now seems like an exception to the rule, and explores this divide with compassion and empathy.World Without End considers the ways religion shapes the way Southerners understand and interact with the world—and how faith can compel them to work to save the places they love.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
