Very few really understand how ecological the vision of Orthodox Christianity really is. He describes creation as the epiphany of God and the human person as a link between creation and the Creator. Christian love is manifested through the "correct use of material things." To convey this perspective, Elizabeth Theokritoff brings to mind ancient sources, Church Fathers, divine worship and the lives of saints, modern exegetes, and concrete examples from various life experiences. The thematic structure makes this volume a convenient resource for the academic environment. Reading this book is captivating and demonstrates that environmental concerns are deeply rooted in the Christian tradition.

Elizabeth Theokritoff conducts an in-depth study of the pressing issue of our responsibility to God's creation, starting with Holy Scripture, the teachings of the Church Fathers, and liturgical texts. The result is a theological work of high relevance, superbly written, being a real joy to read. I enthusiastically recommend it to anyone who is concerned with the meaning and value of the created world and our place in it (Fr. John Breck, Professor of Biblical Exegesis and Bioethics, Saint Sergius Theological Institute, Paris)
