Abstract
Creation often gets neglected in relationship to how it fits into the practice of spiritual disciplines. Sally Smith Holt helps illustrate how important it is to incorporate a theology of creation into one's practicing of spiritual disciplines. She carefully examines four individuals who understand nature/creation and how it relates to the spiritual dimension of all life: Andrew Linzey, Sallie McFague, Thomas Merton, and St. Francis of Assisi. From these individuals, Smith Holt illustrates insights regarding how one can embrace creation for one's own personal spirituality.
