Becky Copeland is a teacher and academic at the intersection of classical Christian theology and ecology. Her theological research explores how an ecologically-formed and -informed relational approaches reshapes Christian doctrine, and her Biblical research asks how attention to the marginalized non-human characters within scripture reshapes interpretation.

She lives in Hyde Park with her rescue pup, Ollie.

Join the Anna Howard Shaw Center for our Thursday lunch lecture in room 325! Our guest is Anine de Grood, a 3rd year MDiv. Anine defines herself as a traveler: from the Netherlands to many countries on three continents, unwillingly settling in the US. From the University of Amsterdam via Oklahoma State University to Boston University, and from atheism via Hinduism and Unitarianism to Christianity. During her travels, she always studied people: why they behave as they do and why is it so hard to be kind? How can we be meek leaders?
