One of the most frequent questions I received when attempting to begin the Catholic Ecology Center was how environmentalism or sustainability fits within our lives as Catholics. I have spent many years finding ways to showcase the beautiful integration of the Church’s call to care for creation within our lives of prayer and service to one another. Recently, I had the privilege to speak to these ideas and others with Dr. Samuel Shephard, professor at Ave Maria University, on their podcast The Catholic Guide to Sustainable Living.
