Walking God's Earth: The Environment and Catholic Faith

Walking God's Earth: The Environment and Catholic Faith

How does the Catholic tradition understand the significance of the environment, and what are the implications for our daily lives? In Walking Godâ€™s Earth, David Cloutier provides a concise, accessible, and spiritually engaging introduction to these questions. Cloutier emphasizes the importance of â€œfinding our placeâ€ within Godâ€™s created order, showing how spiritual experiences and scriptural narratives guide us to a humble and realistic perspective, one that often clashes with the presumptions of society. In its focus on practical ways of living out this message, the book identifies key areasâ€”food, fuel, dwelling places, work, and leisureâ€”where Catholics can bring their faith convictions into daily living.
We are called to handle the things of Godâ€™s creation in holy, sacramental ways, as an essential part of our vocation to live out our faith. Walking Godâ€™s Earth emphasizes the importance of connecting both spiritually and morally, our environmental lives with the basics of our faith in hope that Godâ€™s desire for â€œthe renewal of the earthâ€ may be realized in our own desires and in the practices of our communities.
