About This Book

Climate change, species loss, and the pollution of our air, water, and soil all indicate that humans have failed in their God-given mandate to care for the earth. Some Christians see these as signs of the "end times" and beyond our control. This book goes back to the beginning of creation to examine humanity's God-given vocation to care for creation as an expression of holiness. Human power and agency have their limits in a world where God has ordered things for the flourishing of all creatures. The current environmental crisis is understood as the consequence of not respecting these limits. Instead of passive acceptance of the present crisis, the church is encouraged to work for the common good of the whole creation.
