And The Lord Said, 'Let There Be Wise Community Development'

New Haven Independent: And The Lord Said, "Let There Be Wise Community Development": "Speaking Tuesday morning on 'The Moral Implications of Community Development,' Rabbi Pete Stein addressed a group of New Haven's financial and spiritual movers and shakers; he sees scant distinction in the capacity for moral action between the two. Stein said that the way he reads the Bible, God is calling on all of us to work, through moments of high spiritual uplift or by resolving to recycle those plastic bags to reduce garbage, to make a world sustainable ecologically, economically, socially, and spiritually."
