The Ohio Legislature is overhauling state energy policy with two goals: increasing the supply and reliability of electricity and trying to keep it affordable. Electrical engineer Brent Boyd, one of Ohio’s leading solar entrepreneurs, will alert us to influential supporters of renewable energy. He will outline the “green + green” case that green energy solutions reduce operating expenses as well as protecting the environment. This is the first forum in Faith Communities Go Green’s 2025 series on broadening our advocacy beyond legislators.
In this talk, we will explore the conceptualization of deity in antiquity, and particularly how ideas about divinity are reflected in the presentation of God in the Hebrew Bible.

The Overstory, winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction, is a sweeping, impassioned work of activism and resistance that is also a stunning evocation of―and paean to―the natural world. From the roots to the crown and back to the seeds, Richard Powers’ twelfth novel unfolds in concentric rings of interlocking fables that range from
antebellum New York to the late twentieth-century Timber Wars of the Pacific Northwest and beyond. There is a world alongside ours―vast, slow, interconnected, resourceful, magnificently inventive, and almost invisible to us. This is the story of a handful of people who learn how to see that world and who are drawn up into its unfolding catastrophe.
