Seeing the world as creation: Christian sources for an environmentalist age by Longbons, Jarrod

“…Maximus’ work carries the ancient vision of creation into the medieval period, entirely supportive of environmentalist concerns; indeed, his Christological interpretation of creation is perhaps the “greenest” theology of all, for its evaluation of creation’s source and end is wrapped up in divine destiny.
