Publisher's Synopsis
Is Jesus Green? Does God care how we treat the earth? Should we care? What can we do as Christians and churches to make a difference? Part 1 of "Is Jesus Green?" explores the basics of these questions. Focused on theology of caring for the earth - the "why" question - this section will walk you through some of the Bible's teaching about creation care. Based on his experience with The Well Chapel Hill and the environmental community in Chapel Hill, Matt Carter works to bring the worlds of Christian faith and environmentalism into partnership to help save God's green earth. Each chapter in part 1 includes questions for reflection, making "Is Jesus Green?" an excellent resource for personal or small group study. Part 2 gives practical advice for making your church more green - the "how" question. Using checklists, this guide takes you on a walk through your church's facilities and ministries to help you find ways to partner with God in caring for his good creation.
