"I loved her book for making me ponder, 'How would Jesus approach climate justice?' Prayerful and rational, this is absolutely the book the church needs now. Stephanie's reflections are deeply rooted in Episcopal prayer book identity – while being fully awake to social justice challenges of our time."––Melanie Mullen, Director of Reconciliation, Justice, and Creation Care for The Episcopal Church"Here is a superb blueprint for religious communities to embrace creation care both theologically and practically. It provides an indispensable guide that deserves to be widely read and distributed in parishes across the country."––Mary Evelyn Tucker, Yale Forum on Religion and Ecology"Stephanie's thoughtfully crafted words highlight our individual and collective responsibility to continue to locate ourselves in that narrative, thus offering care to that which has been put in our care. This book is a must read, particularly in our present climate."––The Rt. Rev. David Rice, the Diocese of San Joaquin"Stephanie Johnson has made a significant contribution to the Church's ecological witness. This deeply personal book is rich with theological depth, concrete suggestions, compelling examples, and–perhaps most importantly–hope."–– Andrew R. H. Thompson, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Theological Ethics for The School of Theology at The University of the South“I loved her book for making me ponder, ‘How would Jesus approach climate justice?’ Prayerful and rational, this is absolutely the book the church needs now.
