God S Green Earth

The Creator has called us to care for life, his creation. Unfortunately, many evangelical Christians have decided that value has too much political baggage attached to it and has forsaken caring for God's creation. In this book, pastor and author Tri Robinson clearly shows the biblical mandate for environmental stewardship?and how doing so will change the world around us. Through biblical examples, everyday stories, and practical know-how Robinson delivers a powerful message that cannot be ignored. His insights into how to move people from the idea of stewarding God's creation to actually participating will clearly show leaders in the evangelical Christian community how to raise this value.

First impressions count. God set the tone when He created the earth with our first glimpse of the Garden of Eden. But He didn't stop there. On so many occasions in the Bible, God directs our attention to the flowers. Jesus spent time in solitude in the Garden of Gethsemane. He taught us about growing in Him through the Parable of the Sower. When God repeats an idea, it deserves more than a quick glance. God cultivates us as we grow in relationship with Him when we recognize that He is our Gardener, growing us into His beautiful image. God's Green Earth is a collection of these concepts, intended to help those in search of a deeper connection with Christ.
