Christians read the Bible—it’s part of our spiritual DNA. But for many Christians who care about the earth and its creatures, the Bible seems disinterested in the nonhuman world, if not downright harmful.

The goal of this short course is to read the Bible afresh: to reinterpret texts of terror (for other creatures) and to reclaim passages that show the importance and agency of nonhuman persons. It is intended as a tool for forming earth-inclusive Christians.
