Bodies on the Line: Christians, Civil Resistance and the Climate Crisis is a new book by Revd. Sue Parfitt, a much loved and long-time member of Christian Climate Action

 

What is Bodies on the Line About?
 

Christians are waking up to the existential scale of the climate crisis. They are rediscovering the radical nature of Jesus’s teaching. They are asking what God needs them to do, and putting their bodies on the line to do it. 
 

Why are ordinary Christians breaking the law?

For the incredulous and inspired alike, Sue Parfitt describes the experience, surveying our ecological, emotional, spiritual crisis with the blinkers off.

Bodies on the Line is available in paperback and ebook formats from all online bookstores, from August 24th, 2023 and is available at http://www.labora.press
