Why do we need a "new story"?
Because we are living within a dysfunctional story.
Human beings have evolved into a planetary force,
but have not yet learned to align this power with our lives and culture.

our challenge, our moment
We are still operating from an old paradigm of humans apart from nature.
Misunderstanding how life functions is leading us to destroy the natural systems on which we rely.
It's also making us feel alienated and lost. But something new is emerging.

It's also making us feel alienated and lost. But something new is emerging.
Human's early stories were of kinship with a living Earth community within a vibrant universe.
Our modern story of a separate and mechanistic universe has proven to be powerful, but limited.
We now realize, as Thomas Berry says, the universe is not a collection of objects, but a communion of subjects.
Through Journey of the Universe we can have a scientifically grounded understanding how the universe and Earth is:
Interdependent
Cooperative
Evolving
