| Summary: | It has been asserted that Global warming will be the defining issue of the twenty-first century. Special interest groups, environmental think-tanks and others have long advocated the need to address the way humanity is treating the planet. Governments have been slow to follow and Christian communities slower still. Indeed, Christianity has proclaimed the divine right of humanity to dominate the earth. In short, Christianity has preached exploitation of the environment., Earth and Word Classic Sermons on Saving the Planet is a welcome voice crying in the wilderness. This collection seeks to offer a group of sermons that counter the notion that Christians are called to dominate creation. |
