In "Christianity, Wilderness, and Wildlife", Susan Bratton brings to life the tradition of Christian wilderness spirituality, from Old Testament accounts of Noah and Moses to Celtic monasteries and the Franciscan order. She traces a long history of divine encounters in biblical literature, including visions, providential protection, spiritual guidance, and calls to leadership - all of which highlight the importance of nature in Christian thought. This book will command the attention of the growing audience for works at the intersection of environmentalism and spirituality.
Susan Bratton is chair of the environmental studies department at Baylor University and author of Environmental Values in Christian Art.
