October 13 marks in the United States.

In the spirit of the day, we recommend reading 'Bridging Cultural Concepts of Nature: Indigenous People and Protected Spaces of Nature', edited by Andersson, Cothran & Kekki (2021).

Author Brian Conway introduces and tests a new critical events theory, proposing a four-part framework—ecumenical councils, prophetic stances, sexual scandals, and papal visits—to help explain variation in priesthood trends.
