Synopsis
For millennia, we have gone "down to the river to pray" and gazed out "from lofty mountain grandeur" to experience the Creator. Perhaps our spiritual instincts draw us outdoors because, as the desert monk Anthony of Egypt noted, "[Our] book is the nature of created things, and as often as [we] have a mind to read the words of Cod, they are at [our] hand." ... And it will teach you "I don't think it is enough appreciated how much an outdoor book the Bible is," wrote Wendell Berry. Author Daniel Cooperrider illustrates Berry's point with beautiful narrative-taking the reader on hikes into the mountains and strolls through history to explore God's book of nature. Cooperrider thoughtfully examines the natural world alongside biblical story to ask if we might change the world by remembering Co learn from it. "We've thought that scripture was the key to understanding nature, and not vice versa. We've forgotten how the hook of scripture-as beautiful as it can be-is but the slimmest of volumes that make up the shortest of chapters in the epic, sprawling tome that is the book of nature." Speak with the Earth and It Will Teach You attends to the theological wonder of God's book of nature, traversing rivers and mountains, studying clouds and trees. The book includes Cooperrider's award-winning essay, "Cloud of Witnesses," from the 2022 Writer's Digest Writing Competition. Book jacket., "I don't think it is enough appreciated how much an outdoor book the Bible is," wrote Wendell Berry, and author Daniel Cooperrider illustrates his point with beautiful narrative--like a stroll through the woods. Speak with the Earth analyzes the Bible's treatment of nature and intersperses this analysis with the author's own reflections on experiences in nature. Organized in sections touching on the four elements, the book engages with the multifaceted relationship between the Bible and nature through various media, including art, theology, the natural sciences, history, and lived experience. A timely work on the gift of the Earth that makes a strong case for environmental conservation as a cornerstone of religious life.
