The home site of Realistic living can be accessed by clicking home<\/strong> on this and other pages.<\/p>\n Joyce Marshall\u00a0 writes most of our reviews of books and movies and has put hundreds of those reviews up on Amazon.com . When Joyce and Gene founded Realistic Living they were already accomplished teachers of religion and ethics.\u00a0 In the last 30 years they have written many booklets, full-length books, journals, newsletters, and notebooks on small group nurture. The Marshalls are also social activists: organizers of the bioregional movement; playwright\/directors of a local community method called Ecotheater; trainers in local community leadership methods; and do continuing research on feminism, ecology, economics, education, interreligious dialogue, Christian renewal and other causes.<\/p>\n Gene brings to this faculty an education in mathematics, physics, and theology. Joyce brings her teaching experience and university training in music and education with a deep passion for literature and feminine values.\u00a0 Alan brings a doctors degree in religion and fresh energy much employed in our outreach relations. \u00a0 All three have done advanced studies in Christian theology, non-Christian religions, history, the philosophy of social change, psychology, male\/female relations, ecology, economics, political strategy, and\u00a0 methods for small group religious nurture.\u00a0\u00a0 See our home<\/strong> site for more details on our work and faculty.<\/p>\n The Marshalls live in the woods on the Red River Flats of North Texas in a straw-bale house which they designed and participated in building. This home is both their residence and a meeting place for the activities of Realistic Living.<\/p>\n See photo gallery of the straw-bale house<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" About Realistic Living and Gene Marshall Realistic Living is a 501-C-3 nonprofit organization incorporated in the state of Texas, USA in 1984.
