It was such a privilege to host Professor David Carr at College on Friday evening. Prof Carr presented a paper based on his forthcoming book, Unmaking Eden. Our Trinity whānau enjoyed joining a wonderfully very diverse crowd who gathered to learn, and questions, and share great conversations and kai. Thank you to St Johns Theological College and University of Auckland - Waipapa Taumata Rau for co-hosting the event with our Trinity College family. What a night!

Join us next Friday for Unmaking Eden: How Genesis Can Help Us Reimagine Power, Godlikeness and Our Relations with All Species – a public lecture by Dr David M. Carr (Professor of Old Testament, Union Seminary).

Unmaking Eden draws on recent scholarship in Genesis and animal studies to reexamine human relations with God and other creatures. Rather than sanctioning domination, the primeval stories of Genesis portray human rule as a tragic departure from an earlier vision of kinship, in which all earth beings share a common origin in the soil and a divine breath of life-offering a powerful alternative to theologies that underwrite ecological harm.

This lecture is hosted in partnership by Trinity Theological College, St Johns Theological College, and University of Auckland - Waipapa Taumata Rau.

📅 Friday 21 August 2026, 7:00pm

📍Wesley Hall, St Johns Theological College (202-210 Saint Johns Rd, St Johns, Auckland)

We hope to see you there!
