Jenny Wilson dwells with the earth in this book and finds that, through that lens, new perspectives are found, and the preaching imagination is transformed. Besides drawing deeply from the scriptures, Wilson refers to prophetic voices who also speak up for the earth: St Francis of Assisi, Pope Francis, Sir David Attenborough. Each sermon is attentive to a planet that groans in pain from exploitation and climate catastrophe, longing for rest and renewal. She is preaching here for all things loved by God, who creates, redeems and sanctifies the planet as also humanity.
