Description
“Sleeth is the perfect missionary to American evangelicals for the environmental cause.― —Andy
Crouch, author of Culture Making: Recovering Our Creative Calling “Matthew Sleeth carries a fresh
message and unique insights arising from a life of integrity and a vantage point that offers glimpses of the
world that most others miss.― —Dr. John Stumbo, president of the US Christian and Missionary
Alliance “Reforesting Faith immediately captures the soul! It awakens a hunger for the vastness of God
as well as the immediate presence of God. Matthew has a great gift of taking something as common as a tree
and exploding the Scripture before our eyes, resulting in an overwhelming renewed love for our Lord.―
—Jo Anne Lyon, general superintendent emerita of the Wesleyan Church “Somewhere along the
line, too many people picked up the notion that loving trees was somehow pagan or Druidic. As this volume
makes clear, the Bible is a veritable forest, full of towering cedars and heavy-laden fruit trees. Reading this
will help make the Scriptures come more fully alive.― —Bill McKibben, author of The Comforting
Whirlwind: God, Job, and the Scale of Creation “Reforesting Faith is an extraordinary book. Never
before have I gone on a ‘nature walk through the Bible,†so Iâ€m grateful I had Matthew Sleeth as a
guide. Itâ€s fascinating to see the Bible through this lens—and to realize the connection has been there
all along. I heartily recommend this captivating and beautifully written book that enables us to see Scripture
in a fresh way.― —Howard Dayton, founder of Compass—Finances Godâ€s Way “This is one
of those rare books that makes you wonder how you could have read the Bible your entire life and missed so
many insights and treasures. Matthew Sleeth invites us on an amazing journey through Scripture with an eye
to the special place of trees. In the process he helps us reimagine the world in new ways and awakens parts
in us that have been asleep for far too long. Drawing from nearly a thousand references to trees or their
derivatives in the Bible, Sleeth reignites our sense of wonder and our love for the majesty of God. This book
will help restore our weakened imaginations and remind us of our proper place in the world.― —Timothy
C. Tennent, PhD, president of Asbury Theological Seminary “All of physical creation is an object
lesson of spiritual truth. In this wonderful book Matthew Sleeth illuminates the most profound, prolific, and
practical object in Godâ€s inventory—the tree. Both spiritual solace and spirited service find meaning in
trees.― —Joel Salatin, farmer and author of The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs: Respecting and Caring
for All Godâ€s Creation “When it comes to biblical knowledge and divine insights, I can read
Matthew Sleeth all day. In Reforesting Faith he has given us a curiosity-driven tome telling the grand story
of God through the trees of Scripture. Donâ€t be lost in the woods; read this book, discover the thicket,
and reforest your faith.― —Kyle Idleman, senior pastor of Southeast Christian Church and author of
Not a Fan: Becoming a Completely Committed Follower of Jesus and Donâ€t Give Up: Faith That
Gives You the Confidence to Keep Believing and the Courage to Keep Going “The intricate

symbolism of trees is woven through the Bible from the beginning to the end in a way that is incredibly
obvious to me now after reading Reforesting Faith. Thanks to this book, I will never look at a tree the same
way again. If you care about nature at all, this is a must-read.― —Angela Correll, author of the novel
Grounded “Matthew Sleeth is gifted at pulling out truths in Scripture the rest of us read over. He did it
with the Sabbath, and now heâ€s done it again with trees. Read this book!― —Jess Correll, chairman
of First Southern National Bank and UTG Life Insurance “In Reforesting Faith Matthew Sleeth
reveals his core identity as a conservationist both in calling us to conserve trees and in inviting us to
conserve an often-forgotten core metaphor of the Old and New Testaments. Through lively narrative
grounded deeply in Scripture and in the concrete experiences of his personal journey, the author constructs a
sort of tree-centric theology. Like a seasoned gallery docent, he invites us to notice the pervasive scriptural
use of trees as sacramental signs in our world revealing Godâ€s presence, his activity, and his eternal
purposes. The book—like its subject, the tree—is a gift, pointing us to the triune God whose daily
generosity sustains us and our world.― —Shirley A. Mullen, president of Houghton College
“Matthew again connects us to the essential: God, the planet, the Sabbath, a tree. Godâ€s breath that
gave life to man is being shared daily by all that breathes, including trees. This reminder brings hope and
enormous joy. Reforesting Faith is a must-read.― —Lisa Renstrom, form
