“Christians need to regain a sense that our relationship to the earth is about communion, not consumption.”
Dr. Rowan Williams
AT THE HEART OF IT ALL IS A STORY
God's story begins with creation, moves to redemption and ultimately ends in full restoration. The Creator of the universe is also the Redeemer and Restorer of all creation: from the beginning, God's design is for whole relationships between Creator and creation.​ Creation Care Stories is about highlighting these relationships with our Creator and within the community of creation.
REVEALING RELATIONSHIPS
Creation Care Stories is about highlighting relationships with Creator and within creation. Through this collection of short stories, we aim to connect our identities as creatures who bear God’s image, and our place within God’s wider creation. While these stories reveal some of the “groans of creation”, we also identify pockets of shalom that remind us of the hope we have in Christ and the promise that all will one day be restored.
A LIFELONG JOURNEY...
These stories paint a realistic picture that our care for God’s creation is part of a lifelong journey with Christ, Lord of all creation. This is not about quick-fix solutions; rather it is about a long, faithful journey in the right direction. Our engagement is part of a dynamic relationship between Creator and creation, lived out together with the rest of creation.
