Geoliturgy and Ecological Crisis

Jeffrey S. Lamp is professor of New Testament and instructor of environmental science at Oral Roberts University, Tulsa, Oklahoma.

• IntroductionChapter 1: Ecological Hermeneutics: Reading the Bible EcologicallyChapter 2: Geoliturgy and God: God, Human Beings, and the Other-Than-Human CreationChapter 3: Geoliturgy and Jesus Christ: Christology Read EcologicallyChapter 4: Geoliturgy and the Holy Spirit: The Lord, the Giver of LifeChapter 5: Geoliturgy and the Church: Ecclesiology Read EcologicallyChapter 6: Geoliturgy and Baptism: One BaptismChapter 7: Geoliturgy and Eschatology: In the End, the Beginning... and BeyondChapter 8: The Eucharist: The Priestly Vocation of Human Beings in the WorldChapter 9: Fasting: “When You Fast”Chapter 10: What Is Geoliturgy?

Considerations of the rich (but largely unexplored) theological and practical intersection between ecological and geological domains to the realm of ecclesiology and liturgy is a much-needed undertaking. As Lamp has done time and time before, he has constructed a fresh framework to undertake such a task. The healing of our liturgy may not just renew the church—it may renew all of creation. A needed volume for a direly underserved conversation.
