Grounded in Love Ecology, Faith, and Action

Nancy Roth believes that the future well-being of planet Earth is dependent on the human will and that becoming aligned with truth rather than falsehood, with altruism rather than selfishness, and with action rather than passivity, is good for the soul. And for the Earth. Her book is a passionate and hopeful challenge to people of faith and seekers for truth. "Roth's gentle commentary and elegant passion entice us to a one-ness with creation and each other that is both active and rooted in faith."-Phyllis Tickle, compiler The Words of Jesus: A Gospel of the Sayings of Our Lord "Rev. Nancy Roth gets at the big questions here. Christians in our era will be judged by how they respond to the ecological crisis we now face."-Bill McKibben, author of The Comforting Whirlwind: God, Job, and the Scale of Creation
