Julie Clawson: Practicing “Everyday Justice”

Welcome Friends and Travelers!

Welcome to the Sustainable Traditions online community!

We are a network of radical Christians of all streams and backgrounds who are in pursuit of a more 'whole-life' Christian faith. JESUS called us to love GOD and love our neighbor as ourselves. It is out of this love that we seek to embody His Gospel through Biblically-informed sustainable living, intentional community, social justice and the cultivating of 'the age to come' in the hear and now.

We are all on a journey of faith. We encourage you to come: with your questions, with your gifts, with your open arms. Let's sit around this virtual table and share together, talk together, dream a little together, about what it means to pursue GOD's upside down kingdom in the context of a more holistic walk of faith.

Stay Tuned for our upcoming blogazine: launching this Fall!
