Diarmuid O’Murchu, One On One Interview | Ecological Spirituality

In this One On One Interview from Orbis Books, Robert Ellsberg and Diarmuid O’Murchu discuss O’Murchu’s book, Ecological Spirituality. The changes that humans must make to address the complex ecological crises today are unlikely to happen if they do not experience a spiritual revolution. In Ecological Spirituality, Diarmuid O’Murchu invites readers to the revolutionary work of a life-promoting spirituality for this time. He explores how people must move beyond understandings of holiness that emphasize detachment from the world in favor of something beyond. In his welcoming style O’Murchu reintroduces readers to the long history of humanity’s relationship with the creative Spirit of God, including and transcending religious traditions in a growing horizon of faith. As readers rediscover the sacred here on Earth, they are called to connect spirit with Spirit, discerning and living an ecologically-focused spirituality for the well-being of creatures and ecosystems around the planet.
