Horan, OFM, author of All God's Creatures This important book is both a gift and a challenge to Christians of all traditions and backgrounds, as well as to others who share with us the stewardship of this planet Earth, 'our island home.' In these pages there is much of value for anyone who would dare to follow Jesus and his Way of Love for all of God's children and all of creation. -The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church and author of Love is the Way It is such a gracious filial duty to celebrate, with this publication, the stalwart figure and the eminently moral voice that His All-Holiness, Patriarch Bartholomew, is in Ecumenical Relations, in international policy formulation, and in thinking about care for the earth, our common home. So beautifully do the words of Ben Sirach apply to him: 'A counsellor in his prudence, a seer of all things in prophecy and a resolute prince of God's flock'! (Sirach 44). -Cardinal Peter K. A.

An essential volume! -Jennifer Newsome Martin, author of Hans Urs von Balthasar and the Critical Appropriation of Russian Religious Thought
