Karen Armstrong's recent book, Sacred Nature, seems like it should appeal to Jews who care about the environment. But Sacred Nature surprisingly spends a good deal of ink disparaging the Hebrew Bible and later Judaism. I have written a detailed rebuttal...

My fear is that Jewish readers of Sacred Nature will think that in order to connect to the natural world, they must leave Judaism behind. It is important to respond to Armstrong's fallacious account of Jewish theology... Bring 50 leading spiritual voices into your classroom through the innovative Making Prayer Real Curriculum.
