SUMMARY:“Why the World's Religions Still Matter” by Vicki Garlock
DESCRIPTION:“Why the World’s Religions Still Matter” will be presented by Vicki Garlock at the Sunday\, June 15\, 2025\, meeting of the Ethical Humanist Society of Asheville\, 2:30 – 4:00 pm at 227 Edgewood Rd\, Asheville\, NC. This will be an in-person only meeting (no Zoom). All are welcome to attend. \nReligion has long been used to justify the worst of human behaviors. We’re also seeing a modern-day shift in the role of both religious institutions and faith-based practices. Nevertheless\, religion continues to play an important role in one’s identity\, how we interact with our neighbors\, and how we care for the earth. Vicki has a special interest in educating kids about the world’s religions. As it turns out\, her award-winning kids’ books also help educate adults. \nVicki Garlock earned a Ph.D. with dual specialties in neuroscience and cognitive development and became a Psychology Professor at Warren Wilson College. To spend more family time\, Vicki took a job at Jubilee! Community where she ran their Sunday School program\, wrote the curriculum for kids aged 3 through 8th grade and became their Minister of Education. Vicki has written three books. Her latest book\, “ABCs of the World Religions”\, was recently named an International Impact Award Winner! It also received a Bronze “IPPY” and a Book Excellence Award! “We All Have Sacred Spaces” received a Gold Award from the Nonfiction Authors Association and a Bronze “IPPY” in the Multicultural Non-Fiction for Juvenile/YA. “Embracing Peace – Stories from the World’s Faith Traditions”\, a 2021 Finalist in American BookFest’s Children’s Religious category\, features 16 of her favorite stories from various centuries\, cultures\, and religions.
