“In Pride Goes Before Destruction, Matthew King explains in detail why
human pride is causing enormous pain and suffering to animals and the
destruction of our environment, and he uses the Bible to prove his point. He
even argues both sides of many biblical interpretations, and where pride
gets in the way of truth. Pride Goes Before Destruction is a must-read for
everyone.”

“Matthew King convincingly shows how pride is at the root of our wrong
attitude toward animals, resulting in needless animal suffering, human
health problems, and environmental destruction. Only by embodying the
humility of Jesus through the New Covenant can humanity’s relationship to
animals and to the earth be healed and restored to what God designed it to
be from the beginning.”
—Craig Wescoe, pastor,

“Matthew King’s book is an absolute must-read for Christians who believe
that our sins have consequences. He offers compelling arguments concerning
our obligations to examine how we are sinning in relation to God’s creation
by living in hubristic pride and self-deification. King then calls us to
action within today’s New Covenant and outlines the importance of reading
Scripture through the lens of peace for all, starting with the Ten
Commandments and moving forward.”
