| 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

| 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. Copyright 2003. Herald Press | |

| 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?

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. Copyright 2000 John Hopkins University Press | |
