Stegosaurus Books (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Of God and Pelicans: A Theology of Reverence for Life (Paperback)

This book captures the passion of the environmental movement, and creates a distinct theology that is reconcilable to our Earth. Read it if you are interested in Environmental Justice, the Christian response to the ecological crisis, or animal spirituality.
