In the process, it considers various kinds of world-making, the diverse maps, and the differing senses of "cosmology" in which we all live. Finally, the book examines how certain liturgical reforms can contribute to a refreshed sense of ecological ethics-to a Christian sense of the holiness of the earth itself.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Holy Ground is a rare work of theology - at once liturgical, poetic, cosmological, and ethical. This culminating volume of Gordon Lathrop's trilogy focuses the Trinitarian holiness of God so as to illuminate our whole inhabited world." -- Don El Saliers "Emory University"<br>
