Description
Summary:The title of Katharine Wilkinson's book, Between God and Green: How Evangelicals Are Cultivating a Middle Ground on Climate Change, sets the stage on which she addresses what popular wisdom proclaims: that evangelical social concern and activism on climate change are mutually exclusive. The book that follows not only expels that myth but provides a compelling and detailed narrative that keeps the reader engaged throughout the work. The book opens with historical analysis of evangelical social engagement going back to the 1800s.
