My co-written essay “Animals Matter To God: Rediscovering Creation Guardianship” was originally published in Sacred Tribes Journal, Volume 2, number 2 (2005): 57-125. The essay remains Copyright © 2005 Ruth Pollard and Philip Johnson. It is available to read here as a pdf: Animals_Matter_to_God STJ 2 2 2005 57-125

The essay represents some earlier thinking on my part but much of it remains important as part of my position on animals as understood both theologically and juridically.
