The Earth Is the Lord's by Ryan D Harker
A collection of essays honoring the biblical scholar Ben C. Ollenburger on the topic of the Bible and creation, the subject of much of Ollenburger's scholarly career.“The Earth Is the Lord’s brings much to the contemporary Christian conversation surrounding the relationship between God, humanity, and creation”
—Jacob R. Evers Review of Biblical Literature
“This collection of essays, authored by his colleagues and students, and edited by Ryan D. Harker and Heather L. Bunce, is a fitting tribute to a most deserving scholar. However, at our particular moment in the Anthropocene epoch, when only the most reactionary of pundits and the most craven of politicians deny the potentially catastrophic ecological consequences of global climate change, The Earth Is the Lord’s, which offers “essays on Creation and the Bible,” is a timely book as well.”
—Timothy J. Sandoval Horizons in Biblical Theology
“Honoring the important contributions made by Ben Ollenburger to the elucidation of biblical creation theology, the writers have prepared the soil for further deliberation on theological and ethical challenges faced by Anabaptist Christians today. The promise is not just ecological, but includes insight into what it means to be human, the value of work, a theology of the body, of gender and sexuality, and much more.”
—Paul Keim Mennonite Quarterly Review
