Reader Reviews

"The real challenge for Christians who wish to care for God's creation is how to move from all the good biblical theology that has appeared in recent years, to reasonable and faithful living. Matthew Sleeth and his family have done just that and he has written with engaging humility about the ongoing process and upheaval. His passion and common sense are truly infectious, not least as they come from a medic and not an environmentalist. Following Jesus the Lord requires nothing less of us than care for all the Christ the Creator has made, and so the leadership of people like the Sleeth family is a precious resource."
—Peter Harris International Director, A Rocha

"While much of the focus of current evangelical Christian thought neglects the missional message in favor of miracles, Dr. Sleeth zeroes in on the question "How then do we live?" This is an inspiring testimony of faith-based living firmly rooted in stewardship of the earth and its inhabitants. Even though Dr. Sleeth is unambiguously Christian and this is the source of his commitment, there is nothing exclusionary in his writing. People from all faiths or no faith will appreciate his invitation to live simply so others may simply live."
