Environmental issues, and climate change in particular, provoke intense debate and discussion all around the world, with a whole range of opinions over their priority and what action should be taken. How should Christians respond?
This short, thought-provoking book helps readers to think about the key issues surrounding the environment and climate change through the lens of Scripture.
Author Dave Gobbett traces the he significance of the earth in the Bible's big story, from creation to new creation, and explores what our God-given responsibilities are. He suggests a range of practical responses that Christians can consider.
This book will equip readers to have godly discussions about an issue which is often of particular concern to the younger generation. There is a discussion guide in the back making it a great resource for small groups or whole churches to read together, especially in the run-up to the COP27 conference. Ministry packs are available.
Largely a good intro but I felt it glossed over a few issues and how climate change impacts people (aside from a few mentions of Bangladesh). The certainty that the world will keep on spinning might be true, but it doesn’t allow for what state our world might get to before Jesus returns - especially given the speed at which we’ve wrecked things, which the book acknowledges.
Overall though, a good intro to get conversations going.
Excellent value at optimal length for popular level biblical theological approach to the environment.
I've been a real fan of these Talking Points books that the Good Book Company have produced as they're both biblical and actually very practical, showing what Christians need to be thinking about/wrestling with when thinking about some pretty tricky (and often controversial) topics. They're also very good value and easy to read.
This volume looking at the environment is just as good as the ones that have come before and shows us how our view of the environment needs ...to be shaped by our picture of creation, fall, redemption, and new creation. Gobbett helps us to understand what it looks like to lovingly rule creation, finding the middle ground between withdrawing from creation and abusing creation. There's plenty of biblical-theological reflection as well as lots of really practical application too.
I'm also very thankful for the discussion guide questions available at the end of the book so that I could use this with my small group of youth group if we fancied doing a topical series about it sometime soon.
