Depends on your reading preference
Okay book. Christian values are implemented here which is valuable. However, the writing and word choice seems forced and topics are talked about in circles.

Christian theology is not ecologically bankrupt
I'm so grateful to find so many resources in this book for reclaiming my Christian faith as a faith that cares for the earth, where discipleship and the gospel have everything to do with how we treat other creatures, ecosystems, and the entire planet. This book has breathed new hope into how my faith may sustain me and show a way forward for all of us in these times of climate crisis and ecological destruction.

Scripture and Creation Care
The graphs in the beginning show ecological trends that give good perspective on why Creation Care is gaining the attention of more and more Christians. The use of Psalm 72; the ideal king who rules and exercises dominion states that, in short, yields shalom--"the flourishing of all creation" -- right after the charts, sets the stage for the inspiration to care for all of creation that follows. Well researched and explained.

It’s a book focused around theocenteism
really good book. It challenges you to think of the world around not just as an object but as a plants, creatures, and nature with intrinsic value. The book I bought was used but still in great condition.

This is a crystal clear call for all who are ...
This is a crystal clear call for all who are recognizing the truth that as followers of Christ we are to be on mission - all the time - everywhere - representing God and caring for all of his creation.

What a wonderful and important book on being stewards to the earth
What a wonderful and important book on being stewards to the earth. The book is thoughtful and though-provoking. We do not take care of the earth because we must make a difference, but because it is inherently right to do so.

Good book -- I disagree with it on certain points
This is a deep book, it doesn't treat anything superficially.My only problem with the book is that it claims that our natural world will be saved with Jesus' second coming and that Jesus died for animals as well as people.

I loved the book! It was used but the condition was as the seller described it and the price was worth it.
