Wild and Wonderful
After logging thousands of miles in planes, jeeps, dugout canoes, pickup trucks, bicycles, and on foot, LeQuire and du Plessis offer insights into how Christians around the world are using tourism to develop their villages while caring for both creation and culture. Based on a multi-year research project, this book showcases innovative projects that Christian villagers and faith-based organizations are engaging to alleviate poverty through business ventures. Through a unique mix of travelogue and theological reflection, this book concludes with a challenge to the status quo of current short-term mission practice and provides thoughtful alternatives.
Living in the Lamblight
In recent decades many fundamental Christian assumptions about the nature of God and the world have come under attack. No longer can one assume even in many church circles that historic Christian beliefs about the Trinity and providence are generally accepted or understood. Scientific knowledge and new technologies have also presented challenges for the church. How, for example, should Christians understand the ecological crisis? And how should the opening chapters of Genesis be understood in an age of genetic research and evolutionary science? This collection of essays attempts to chart a faithful path for postmodern Christians, exploring the foundational ideas and concepts of a Christian worldview and suggesting their implications for Christian living today.Contributors: Hans Boersma John Cooper Marva J.

Ecologies of Grace
Christianity struggles to show how living on earth matters for living with God. While people of faith increasingly seek practical ways to respond to the environmental crisis, theology has had difficulty contextualizing the crisis and interpreting the responses. In Ecologies of Grace, Willis Jenkins presents a field-shaping introduction to Christian environmental ethics that offers resources for renewing theology. Observing how religious environmental practices often draw on concepts of grace, Jenkins maps the way Christian environmental strategies draw from traditions of salvation as they engage the problems of environmental ethics. He then uses this new map to explore afresh the ecological ...
Leadership for Environmental Sustainability
As the first book in the field of leadership studies to approach sustainability as a multi-faceted leadership challenge, Leadership for Environmental Sustainability will help to set the terms of the discussion on this topic among students, scholars, and practitioners of leadership for years to come. It explores the connection between leadership and sustainability from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, including sociology, history, psychology, business, literature, communication, and the arts. With short chapters edited for readability, the book is aimed at scholars, practitioners, students, and educated lay readers interested in cutting-edge research and thinking on this topic.
To Care for Creation
In merely two decades, a small number of resource-poor religious organizations have created a new ethic, and a new set of green religious traditions, with an infrastructure in place to educate and mobilize individuals and organizations. To Care for Creation explains how religious environmentalism has emerged despite various institutional and cultural barriers, and why the new movement organizations follow a logic and set of practices that set them apart from the secular movement. In addition to the new ethic and green religious traditions, Ellingson shows how the movement launches programs to make religious building environmentally, friendly, fight toxic waste and mountain-top removal, protect watersheds, and promote sustainable agriculture. His book research involved him in six dozen interviews with key players in the 70 or so extant religious environmental movement organizations, which are set against secular environmental organizations; the difference is between a message of hope for the religious movement vs. one of doom and gloom for the secular movement. The religious movement is sorely understudied, and it addresses a crucial issue of the dayclimate change."

The Forbidden Knowledge of Good and Evil
The Forbidden Knowledge of Good and Evil – The Great News is all about the life of Christ during His trial and sufferings, up to His death and resurrection as told through His disciple James and a host of other early Christians such as Isrealius. Also read the words of Pontius Pilate and other eye witnesses such as the guard Manilus who recounted other dead saints coming back to life just as the Bible does say. And many other people who wrote beautiful things about the Lord are also included herein such as James C. Hefley who long ago wrote...”While still a young man, the tide of popular opinion turned against Him. He was turned over to His enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial...

The Lost Gospel of Simon Peter
Dare to explore the long lost gospel of Simon Peter, the rock, which was more highly esteemed by early Christians than a couple of the other Biblical gospels, according to some theologians. And it's also a fact that this holy gospel gives some fantastic insights into the good news that the others do not. Therefore, it's a very wise move for any follower of our Lord of Evermore to become enlightened to this historical piece that's printed with utter magnificence. And as an extra special bonus the gospel of James the Righteous is also included herein, so believers can be twice as blessed with a double dose of holiness that exalts Jesus Christ Almighty in a truly extraordinary way. So buckle on...
