Acts: An Earth Bible Commentary – About Earth’s Children: An Ecological Listening to the Acts of the Apostles
‘In this wonderful book, Michael Trainor combines an intertextual approach to the Bible with sensitivity to Earth’s presence in both Acts and the everyday context of the contemporary reader, in order to discern God’s ecological intent to include the whole creation – and not just humankind – in the coming Kingdom. Attracted to the reality-transforming imagination of Jesus, the ultimate Earth’s Child, readers of today can also become Earth’s children, sharing their Master’s passion for God’s inclusive reign of justice and peace. Clearly written, convincingly argued, and thoroughly dialogical, Trainor offers us a gift that will be appreciated by all those interested in biblical interpretation and caring for God’s creation.’

Colossians: An Earth Bible Commentary – An Eco-Stoic Reading
‘Based on many years of research into ancient Stoicism, ecological hermeneutics, and the letter to the Colossians, this commentary offers a rich and compelling reading of the letter which is both scholarly and accessible. Vicky Balabanski shows the importance of Stoic ideas both to early Christian theology and to contemporary ecological reflection, and her eco-Stoic reading of Colossians shows how much this letter could contribute to the ecological reshaping of Christian theology and ethics. Her imaginative voicing of Nympha’s thoughts also adds a creative and reflective dimension to the commentary. Unlike existing commentaries, this work brings the letter’s theology – especially its Christology – into explicit dialogue with contemporary ecological questions, and thus provides rich resources for Christians in particular to address the most urgent global issue of our time.’
