| 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. Copyright 2000 John Hopkins University Press | |

| Anabaptists have long understood that how one lives, rather than what he or she says, is the most accurate description of what one believes This is particularly true in the care of a Christian's use of money. The theological foundation for a Christian's view of money is clearly stated in A Christian View of Money. This volume could profitably be used as a new believer's guide to faith and doctrine. Author Mark Vincent refuses to bless either avarice or accumulation. Many will be challenged by his clear direction for change. Copyright 2007 | |

need another organizational tool or trick. What you'll study in these

to the Christian seeking God and wholeness. Each chapter ends with
discussion questions you can answer as a group or individually, that
will help you identify areas where you may need to do some repair work.

Environment
| 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. Copyright 2006

| "You never quite know where you will find Lynn Miller-teaching in
Nebraska, worshipping in Zimbabwe, studying in Chicago, or visiting at
the bus station. But, where he is, Lynn notices relationships. The
connective tissue between people, possessions, faith, finances,
Scripture, culture, labor, and leisure captures his attention.
Equipped with a healthy passion, Lynn mines these connections for
meaning and promise. My appreciation of Lynn and his message grows as
it is evident that the truth of God's 'enough' clearly shapes Lynn's
daily life as well as his teaching and writing" --Ed Taylor,
Ecumencial Stweardship Center, Indianapolis, Indiana. Copyright 2004
