Are there common spiritual Truths that exist within each of the world's great religions? The gem-like selections of art and writings in Christian Spirit cover the first one and a half millennia of Christianity beginning shortly after the death of the Christ. All spiritual seekers regardless of specific religious affiliation will the inspired by the beauty and wisdom contained in this book.

With an increasing sense of urgency as we enter the 21st Century, we face a mounting environmental crisis. With a profound vision of the sacred quality of creation this collection of beautiful photographs of the natural world combined with commentaries by a host of Christian sages of all denominations, from the origins of Christianity up to the 19th century, provides answers to how we should view the relationship between the Creator and creation as well as understand how the divine activity permeates the entire universe. Linking the environmental crisis to a failure of spiritual vision, SERMON OF ALL CREATION is both testimonial and hymn and it reveals the great reverence for creation which lives in the heart of the Christian tradition.
