5.0 out of 5 stars
life-changing look at the real possibilities of faith,
By A Customer
This review is from: With Roots and Wings: Christianity in an Age of Ecology and Dialogue (Ecology and Justice) (Paperback)
Read this book! If you are Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, agnostic, or athiest, these pages hold valuable insights and truths into the need for and possibilities of an eco-sensitive, spiritual life. If you are one of the many disenchanted Christians or former Christians ("but I still consider myself spiritual") out there, prepare yourself to see Christianity in a new and brighter light. I have bought copies for every member of my disbelieving, scientific family.
