A Creed for Today: Faith and Commitment for Our New Earth Awareness

Topical new work that explores the interplay between ecological theology and spirituality at this critical juncture in the twenty-first century. Following the success of his widely acclaimed The Pope Francis Agenda, renowned theologian Donal Dorr returns with a topical new work that explores the interplay between an ecological spirituality and traditional Christian faith at this critical juncture. Rather than seeing ecological spirituality as an adjunct to Christian doctrine, Donal Dorr views it as central to the understanding of Christianity today and integral to understanding our relationship with the natural world. Stressing the importance of our ‘new earth awareness’, the author lays out a compelling vision for how we should live at both a spiritual and practical level in terms of our Christian faith and our attendant role as stewards of the Earth. AUTHOR: Donal Dorr is a theologian and missionary priest who has served as a consultor to the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace and as a resource person for the Irish Missionary Union. He is the author of ten books, including The Pope Francis Agenda and Option for the Poor, which has become a standard reference on Catholic social teaching, and the award-winning Spirituality and Justice.
