Content descriptions
Formatted Contents Note: | A communion of subjects -- When you realize something is missing -- Into the mountains to pray -- Allured into the wilderness -- Restoring the great conversation -- In the beginning was the logos -- Courtship of the particular -- Love is as strong as death -- Wild ordination. |
Summary, etc.: | "Like many who feel unfulfilled by traditional faith expressions, Victoria Loorz went in search of spirituality strong enough to reckon with the unraveling of her vocation, identity, and planet, and found herself in the wilderness. With an ecospiritual lens on biblical narratives and a fresh look at a community larger than our own species, Church of the Wild uncovers the wild roots of faith and helps us deepen our commitment to a suffering earth by falling in love with it--and calling it church. Here Loorz helps us connect to a love that literally holds the world together--a love that calls us into communion with all creatures"--Back cover. |
