Book review — The Environment

Book: The EnvironmentAuthor: Dave GobbettPublisher: The Good Book CompanyRetail Price: £4.99 (buy now)
Review by Jonny Raine1 minute readMarch/April 2023, page 30

The Environment

This short primer packs a big punch as it tackles such an important topic. The Good Book Company’s Talking Points series is only intended as an introduction to a big ethical issue. In this one, Dave Gobbett covers a biblical theology of our world and of humanity’s responsibility to care for it. The extremes of fear and withdrawal are helpfully set aside as unchristian responses and in their place we’re shown a practical, deliberate, positive care for our planet. Discussion questions are provided, making the book useful for small groups or one to ones.
