173 pages ; 21 cm, Among the many pressing social concerns that have galvanized evangelical Christians' response--abortion, human trafficking, environmental degradation, and many others--the care of animals has received relatively little attention. Yet as author Sarah Withrow King deftly uncovers in Vegangelical, animal stewardship is a necessary aspect of a holistic ethic of Christian peace and justice. Indeed, care for animal welfare correspondingly strengthens our care for environmental and human flourishing. Practical, restrained in its conclusions, and grounded on a broader theology of Christian compassion, Vegangelical calls readers to a greater attentiveness to one of the primary relationships in God's created order, that between humans and animals.--Amazon.com, Includes bibliographical references, Why me? and why this book? -- Theological foundation -- Made in the image of the Trinitarian God -- Dominion and stewardship -- Loving the other -- Using animals -- Animals in our homes -- Animals in (and out of) the wild -- Animals used for research -- Animals used for food and clothing -- What's next?
