In the revised edition of Love in a Time of Climate Change, Sharon Delgado offers hope amid the urgency and magnitude of the rapidly advancing climate emergency. Delgado guides readers on a faith journey inspired by love of God and neighbor, equipping them to respond to the climate emergency that wreaks havoc on humanity, especially the poor; threatens future generations; and devastates creation. By using Scripture, tradition, reason, and experience to explore the themes of creation and justice, she helps readers assess the realities and implications of climate change and discern a response that includes honoring creation and establishing justice in our time.
Sharon Delgado is a United Methodist pastor and nonviolent activist, and helps followers of Jesus cultivate a mature faith that integrates personal spirituality with social action. Sharon's other books include Shaking the Gates of Hell: Faith-Led Resistance to Corporate Globalization (2007, 2020) and The Cross in the Midst of Creation: Honoring Creation, Establishing Justice (2022).
