About this title

Synopsis

Priest, poet, professor, and environmentalist Jim Conlon has worked tirelessly building bridges between science and religion for more than a quarter century.

In the tradition of cultural historian and geologian Thomas Berry at the Riverdale Center for Religious Research, Fr. Conlon composed programs and reflections at Springbank Retreat in Kingstree, South Carolina, during his retirement years. He says, "Awaken to something entirely new, a time to make possible a world of beauty where each human and other-than-human can flourish and thrive."

About the Author

Priest, poet, professor, and environmentalist Jim Conlon has worked tirelessly building bridges between science and religion for more than a quarter century. Jim Conlon was born in Canada in 1936. He received a degree in chemistry from Assumption University of Windsor, and later in theology from the University of Western Ontario, and a PhD from Union Institute and University. Deeply moved by the impact of the second Vatican Council, the civil rights movement, and the Vietnam War, Jim moved from pastoral work to the streets. He was the recipient of the 2013 Thomas Berry Award. For more information and a complete list of Jim's published works, see: www.jimconlon.net.
