…h Rienstra’s word choice. For example, she deliberately uses the term ‘more-than-human world’ in place of ‘nature.’ I agree with her that “imagining ourselves as entirely distinctive and superior is the old and dangerous slippage at the root of our current crises,”15 and that we need to remember that we are very much a part of creation. However, it is still the case that humans, created in the image of God, have been given a unique role in creatio…

To test my thesis, I looked back at my own reading history and also emailed a number of acquaintances who are readers, asked them if they ever re-read books, and if they did, what book especially did they choose to re-read. One story that I read repeatedly from an old anthology when I was a boy was an old French tale called “Roland the Nob…

Our team also had the opportunity to speak with a free woman who fell prey to trafficking in the past. We’ll call her Beth.
