Bilbro, Jeffrey.Preserving “God’s Wildness” for Redemptive Baptism.” Christianity & Literature 61, no. 4 (Summer 2012): 587-622.

Abstract: An essay is presented which focuses on the belief of John Muir, member of the Disciples of Christ, in immersing himself in the Sierra by partaking in its divine natural redemption. It says that Muir preached the “gospel of glaciers” to bring people to the wild baptism where they would be cleansed by divine love. It mentions the letter written by Muir to his friend, Jeanne Carr, on the fall of man and the wonders of Redeeming Love.
