Agape Ethics

Philosophy

“Bill Greenway wants to awaken us to a primordial love that draws us into relationships of care for all creatures. Along the way he offers a valuable critique of modernity's scientism and rationalism that drains the universe of mystery and ensconces the human as the sole locus of worth among all things. Arguing for a moral realism grounded in agape, Greenway offers us a moral vision of the infinite value of every creature that can, in turn, inform human ethical decision-making and action at a time when so much life on Earth is endangered.​”

Beguiled by Beauty

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Thomas Merton wrote that contemplation is the spiritual life ‘fully awake, fully active, fully aware that it is alive.’ In Beguiled by Beauty, Wendy Farley develops a remarkable account of contemplation that demonstrates the truth of Merton’s insight. Drawing extensively on the historic wisdom of the world’s contemplative traditions, Farley describes the Christian contemplative life as one open and attuned to Divine beauty and immersed in everyday joy, sorrow, delight, suffering, and routine. Not a ‘how to’ book, this work is nonetheless filled with practical wisdom for anyone who longs to more fully embrace and embody God’s love, compassion, and justice in the world.”

Ecospirituality

Prayer & Spiritual Formation

“Reading classic Christian spiritual traditions in light of our current planetary crisis and in conversation with contemporary ecopsychology, ecophilosophy, and ecological knowledge, Rachel Wheeler invites us to reimagine our relationship to our planetary home and embrace the radically interrelated intimacy that humans share with the rest of the Earth community. In this book Wheeler outlines the shape of a “kincentric ecospirituality.” This is truly an important book for all who are discerning what and how we are called to be in this new climate for spirituality.”
