Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth--extreme temperatures and weather patterns wreak havoc, pollutants sour soils and waterways, and fires and floods ravage land and communities.

If we want change, we must realize that the solutions to the problems we face can't come through the same systems that created those problems in the first place. >This book offers hope for a better future alongside concrete actions for joining with Indigenous Peoples to protect life and negotiate with decision-makers for sustainable change that follows Jesus. In these pages, readers are called to confront climate change and choose life for our children and the future of our planet.
