Dr. Stoll, professor of American environmental history and American religious history, will present on how the Reformed churches in America, including Presbyterians, were, in his words, “ the undisputed leaders in environmental thought, art and action.” He will present the historical basis for how faith energized these Presbyterian and Reformed Christians towards a public mission to protect the environment. Dr. Stoll’s writings challenge Presbyterians to look at our history as a way to commit to energy, clarity and leadership in earth care today. The Salzman Lecture Series was established in 1998 to honor the memory of Lewinsville elder and outstanding Presbyterian layman, Howard Salzman. The lecture is an opportunity for reflection on areas central to Howard’s own ministry: public affairs, global missions, and Christian education.
