The Seminar Presenter is Rev. Ed Brown, founding director of Care of Creation Inc. and one of the leaders of the growing evangelical creation care movement.

His book Our Father’s World has been praised by biologist and environmentalist E. O. Wilson as “beautiful and inspiring… Christians and secular environmentalists need to read it and understand the power that Christianity has to help save the living environment - not just in voting numbers, but also out of strength from spirituality and rational argument.”

Ed was previously Chief Operating Officer for Au Sable Institute of Environmental Studies, and has worked with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship and as a pastor both in the US and overseas. Ed has the Master of Divinity degree from Gordon Conwell Seminary and lives in Madison WI.

Ed and Susanna have four grown children.
