European Methodist Lecture Series 2025

An invitation from the European Methodist Lecture Program (EMLP)

In this fifth series of the EMLP, we explore the theological, spiritual, political, and practical dimensions of the evolving climate crisis. The series is designed to enable ministry practitioners in Europe to reflect on the mission and ministry of the church in the light of the global implications of climate change and to engage with big theological and spiritual questions: What does it means to be human in relation to an increasingly volatile natural world? What does it means to be justice-seeking in the context of uneven climate change resilience? What do we think God’s purposes are for creation.

The European Methodist Lecture Program is an online lecture series of the Methodist-related Schools in Europe (MTSE). This year’s program is organized and managed by Wesley House Cambridge (Jane Leach and Daniel Pratt-Morris-Chapman) and Reutlingen School of Theology (Ulrike Schuler and Stephan von Twardowski).

Speakers from various countries, Methodist traditions, theological expertise, and ecumenical contexts will give their insights and present their perspectives and research on “Climate Justice” from a theological perspective. The lectures are followed by discussions in groups and in plenary sessions. The EMLP brings together students, theologians, clergy, and lay persons from all over Europe and beyond – from different backgrounds and cultures. It offers a learning space on intercultural and international level.

Above please find the invitation including the program with speakers, topics, dates, and the registration information.
