Keeping the Gospel Clear in the Face of Green Twists

Keeping the Gospel Clear in the Face of Green Twists — Wanliss dot Com: Matthew Sleeth’s The Gospel According to the Earth teems with practical advice tethering spiritual profit with green ethics, offering religious insights skillfully woven with intimate stories.

This reviewer is grateful for Sleeth’s recognition that: alone among the creatures humans are created in God’s image; Christians should excel at hospitality; we should not make idols of material things; the prosperity gospel is a counterfeit; technology is not “inherently evil”; we should observe the Sabbath. Hugely to his credit, Sleeth makes extensive scriptural references.

Yet defense of vital truths compels one to address faults.
