About the Book

Coming Back to Earth: Essays on the Church, Climate Change, Cities, Agriculture and Eating is a thought-provoking collection of essays that delves into some of the most pressing issues of our time: climate change, urbanization, agriculture, and food security. At its core, the collection argues that these challenges are not just external crises but touch upon fundamental aspects of human existence, for which the biblical narrative offers profound insights and solutions.


The essays contend that the Bible provides not only timely explanations for our contemporary predicaments but also timeless wisdom that can illuminate pathways toward hopeful resolutions. By engaging with biblical teachings, the collection suggests, we can uncover essential truths that resonate deeply with the core issues we face today. This perspective invites readers to reconsider their understanding of the church's role and purpose in a world fraught with challenges. It prompts reflection on why Christianity may appear disconnected from modern concerns and what steps are necessary to rejuvenate the church as a vibrant and relevant force for positive change.


Moreover, Coming Back to Earth encourages a shift away from viewing these challenges merely as abstract global issues. Instead, it urges readers to recognise them as existential challenges that profoundly impact our daily lives and our spiritual beliefs. By bridging the gap between theological insights and practical realities, the collection aims to inspire a renewed sense of engagement and responsibility among believers.


Through its exploration of biblical narratives and their implications for contemporary issues, the collection invites us to envision a church that is not only introspective but actively engaged in addressing the pressing needs of our time. It calls for a deeper integration of faith and action, suggesting that by drawing from the wellspring of biblical wisdom, we can cultivate a more resilient and compassionate response to the crises facing our planet and our communities.


In essence, Coming Back to Earth challenges us to reframe our understanding of both the challenges before us and the role of faith in addressing them. It presents an invitation to rediscover the relevance of biblical teachings in navigating a world in need of healing and renewal, offering a beacon of hope and guidance for individuals and communities alike.
