The Green Elephant

If you missed this week you can listen to the podcast here.

Here's some questions, thoughts and scriptures from Sunday to think about this week:

In the beginning there was shalom (peace, wholeness) in every relationship:
- with God, with each other, with ourselves and with the earth

At the fall in Genesis 3 all of those relationships were broken.

In Jesus life, death and resurrection he was making a way for peace again in those relationships.
Read Colossians 1:15-21

Read Romans 8:18-23
Thoughts...

Read Job 38 and 39 to see Gods intimate connection with creation.
One question...WHO LET THE WILD DONKEY GO FREE???

How you treat the creation reflects how you feel about the creator. Thoughts...

We've been given responsibility to lovingly care for and steward the earth. Read Genesis 1:27-31
This responsibility is not a duty, it's worship.

What are some creative ways we can start to be more responsible with the earth God has given us?
