Theology
Recent years have seen a shift in the belief that a religious world-view, specifically a Christian one, precludes a commitment to environmentalism. Whether as "stewards of God's creation" or champions of "environmental justice," church members have increasingly found that a strong pro-ecology stand on environmental issues is an integral component of their faith. But not all Christian denominations are latecomers to the issue of environmentalism. In Creation and the Environment, Calvin Redekop and his coauthors explain the unique environmental position of the Anabaptists.

In rural Amish and Mennonite communities, the authors explain, the environment—especially the land—is considered part of the Kingdom that God will establish on Earth. Creation and human history are thus seen as completely interdependent.

Stewardship
The author's vision for possessing land is a fresh alternative to the historical pattern of conquest and displacement of terrorized populations. Jeschke's careful reading of the biblical narrative offers a redeeming view for stewarding space on God's earth, a way we might call "salvation geography." God's design in salvation history is for a quality of life that sanctifies the whole earth.

A High Price for Abundant Living is a guide to our present economic system: how it came to be and how it works today. It seeks to contrast Adam Smith's ideal and the recent realities of immense corporations and the fragile natural environment. This gentle critique recognizes the powerful impact the current economic system has in generating a high material standard of living with considerable human freedom. Yet it dares to believe that we can aspire to an even better system that is more responsive to changing social and environmental realities-a system where the creative and enterprising spirit is encouraged to seek a better life for the entire global community.

Based on Genesis 1 story of creation, Joanne Moyer uses the seven days of creation as a basis for exploring the aspects of our created world, how it is threatened, what is being done to protect it, and further actions that individuals, households, and congregations can take to live more sustainably. Moyer also explores how ecological concern and justice relate to Christian faith, delving into the Bible and a broad range of thinkers and writers to discover and celebrate the ecological imperative of our faith tradition.

Not only does creation reveal God and provide a place for encounter with God, but it praises God. The earth makes a joyful noise (Ps. 66:1) and sings a new song to the Lord (Ps. 96:1), trees clap their hands (Isa. 55:12), the sea roars, fields exult (Ps. 96:11-12) and hills sing together for joy (Ps. 98:8). Can you hear creation's praise in the song of the bird, in the roaring of the storm, in the waves lapping on the shore?
