Castillo: "Integral liberation cannot be separated from the process of integral communion." Ellen Davis: "The threefold communion with  God, neighbor, and earth properly constitutes Christified space." We are called, in other words, to the salvation of "an ecological conversion."

end/ Our hope for redemption, for personal and corporate resurrection? Plain, human-centered miscalculation, if it doesn’t include our partnered indivisibility with Creation. Concrete reality is the covenantal realm in which redemptive time comes to ground.

Likewise, the bio-cultural simultaneity of eco-social physicianship not only recognizes the unparalleled regenerative synergies unique to the dynamic reconciliation of human and earthly solidarity, but actively works them. The integral ecology of planetary peace, locally-made.

Wendell Berry: “You cannot save the land apart from the people, or the people apart from the land.” What is it to serve others and the Earth, in the very same breath? What is it to co-creatively serve the co-evolutionary unicity of a single garment of destiny?

Quoted by@HaddenTurner Indeed, for regenerative designers, the idea that Humans and Habitat are somehow separate from each other, amounts to the greatest of fallacies.
