    About this ebook

    A church on the rubbish dump... Christian business people practice the Gospel of Jesus, giving life to people and the environment... a community leaves the comfort of the middle-class neighbourhood and moves to a place in the middle of working class neighbourhoods... in response to the Biblical challenges about caring for creation a church embraces the work of reforestation in a park. On Earth As It Is In Heaven presents concrete experiences of social environmental action in churches in Brazil. Representing a diversity of styles and contexts, coming from different regions of the country, what these experiences and actions have in common is taking the divine principle of “as in heaven” and putting it into practice. This is a challenging read, which will move people into collective action, bringing God’s Kingdom to Earth.
