"...a great read on how individual Christians and their families can
respond to God’s call for environmental stewardship." — Acton
Institute
"...remarkable: elegantly written, theologically and scientifically
acute, and not least, beautifully typeset and bound.... Serve God, Save the
Planet is about much more than environmental activism.... [W]hat I took away
from Sleeth's book had less to do with the specifics of energy use and recycling
than the hope that there is a better way to live as families: that it is
possible to detoxify our technologized and hypermediated homes, and that our
children will thank us for it.... Sleeth...is the perfect missionary for the
environmental cause;....he recognizes, in time-honored evangelical style, that
the most important battleground for any social change is the human heart...." —
