Forgiveness is at the heart of the Christian Gospel. It goes hand
in hand with love, mercy, and grace, the fundamental theological
virtues. However, forgiveness is easier to define than it is to
embody. This unique collection of essays brings together
theologians, ethicists, and ministry practitioners into a
constructive dialog which explores the complex and crucial concept
of forgiveness: what it is, where it is to be found, and how it
might be practiced. These essays reflect the perspectives of those
from various traditions who nonetheless take the Christian
Scriptures seriously, believe that forgiveness is central to living
out the Gospel, and are creative in the ways in which forgiveness
can be practiced. Forgiveness is an art and not simply a science;
as such it requires trust, skill, and hope alongside love, mercy,
and grace if it is to be embodied. This volume offers a unique
window into the art of forgiveness and the faithful and innovative
ways in which it is to be understood, embodied, and cultivated.

American environmentalism historically has been associated with the
interests of white elites. Yet religious leaders in the
twenty-first century have helped instill concern about the earth
among groups diverse in religion, race, ethnicity, and class. How
did that happen and what are the implications? Building on
scholarship that provides theological and ethical resources to
support the "greening" of religion, God and the Green Divide
examines religious environmentalism as it actually happens in the
daily lives of urban Americans. Baugh demonstrates how complex
dynamics related to race, ethnicity, and class factor into
decisions to "go green." By carefully examining negotiations of
racial and ethnic identities as central to the history of religious
environmentalism, this work complicates assumptions that religious
environmentalism is a direct expression of theology, ethics, or
religious beliefs.
