Central London, October 2022: Sue Parfitt, an 80-year-old Anglican priest, is arrested for sitting in the road.

It's not her first time, nor the last; and she isn't alone. 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. You might want to be sitting down.

"Astonishing" - Bishop Laurie Green

"Read this book. Weep. Pray and act." - Rev'd Jon Swales

"A clear and cogent account of the crisis we are in, and a response to the question 'What would Jesus do?' It is a profound question for all Christians to ask and answer." - Olivia Graham, Bishop of Reading
