Faith, Hope, Action

A prophetic witness for these stressful times in our Earth's history, award-winning author Diana Ensign points the way to a better future. Inspired by a deep love of nature and a concern for our environmental and climate change challenges, Diana embarks on a yearlong quest to learn what we need to do to save our Earth home. Along this journey, she seeks out scientists, farmers, Indigenous teachers, faith-based visionaries, environmental justice advocates, and student activists who are working for a sustainable planet. Propelled by love, Diana also spends reflective time listening to Mother Earth to initiate healing-for ourselves, for our fellow inhabitants, and for our Earth-and she invites us to do the same!

Includes Book Club Discussion Topics for helpful Earth care actions.
