Our Angry Eden

"A beautiful and timely reminder that there's plenty we can be doing to fit in better with creation. Read it and change!" ---- Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature "When it comes to abusing creation, we have the science, knowledge, and understanding that we need to do the right thing, but we lack the spiritual fortitude. In Our Angry Eden, David Williams tends to our courage by giving voice to our spiritual crisis, longing, and hope." --Carol Howard Merritt, writer and pastor of Bedford Presbyterian Church "We have been waiting for more Christians to speak out and speak up about the dangers of our climate emergency. David Williams is doing just this in an engaging manner. This book is personal, prophetic, and practical." --Mary Evelyn Tucker, cofounder and codirector of the Forum on Religion and Ecology at Yale University; coauthor of Journey of the Universe "Our Angry Eden by David Williams is a must-read. With clear-eyed honesty and a perceptive analysis of the existential threat of the climate crisis, Williams forces us to face the mess we are in, but he also conjures hope through lively storytelling, biblical insight galore, and sound practical ideas that embody God's good future." --Steve Bouma-Prediger, author of For the Beauty of the Earth: A Christian Vision for Creation Care and Earthkeeping and Character: Exploring a Christian Ecological Virtue Ethic "In a time when the words climate emergency send many people into a panicked despair or an overwhelmed paralysis, David Williams offers a third way. This book gives attainable, tangible ways to engage, while spreading out a rich theological foundation for how to love our neighbor as we care for our earthly home." --Anna Woofenden, author of This Is God's Table: Finding Church Beyond the Walls and founder of The Garden Church
