Additional information
by Mitchell Nelson (Author)
In the sense of tradition, past Christian ecologies and environment works have experienced a need to neatly fit in with past Christian theology like original sin that creates the human/nature ecology as a cursed or unblessed relationship. Such traditional concepts no longer make sense when we look at the current science on the benefits of the human/nature ecological relationship.
For the first time, this work looks to modernize our Christian ecology by using current historical and scientific research that moves Christianity into a language that speaks positively about this ecological relationship for the betterment and health of humanity and the natural environment.
Mitchell Nelson brings to light the current information about the indoor generation that will spend 90 percent of their lives indoors and that this separated ecological relationship is the greatest contributing factor to global warming. In a response to this information and the broken relationship that has been theorized by Christianity, the book moves forward into envisioning how a Christian spiritual ecology can be lived out in the practice of this spiritual relationship between humanity, God, Jesus, and nature.
