In \u003ci\u003eWalking God's Earth\u003c\/i\u003e, David Cloutier provides a concise, accessible, and spiritually engaging introduction to these questions. Cloutier emphasizes the importance of \"finding our place\" within God'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 areas--food, fuel, dwelling places, work, and leisure--where Catholics can bring their faith convictions into daily living.We are called to handle the things of God's creation in holy, sacramental ways, as an essential part of our vocation to live out our faith. \u003ci\u003eWalking God's Earth\u003c\/i\u003e emphasizes the importance of connecting both spiritually and morally, our environmental lives with the basics of our faith in hope that God's desire for \"the renewal of the earth\" may be realized in our own desires and in the practices of our communities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Cloutier\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814637094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814637098\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/25\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 164\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.43lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 6.34w x 0.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristian Century\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/29\/2015 pg. 35","brand":"David Cloutier","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926433890559,"sku":"9780814637098","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_78658caf-eb6d-4cdd-8539-1679fc467d7b.jpg?v=1681083067","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/walking-gods-earth-david-cloutier-9780814637098","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
