Add to basketWe live in an era in which humankind is having a devastating impact on the planet. The climate is changing, wild animal populations are being decimated, extinction rates are at an all-time high, and the oceans are acidifying.
Should Christians care? In this short book and accompanying bible study guide we say "Yes". A beautiful world offers a much needed corrective to layers of theological tradition that disconnect us from God's heart for all he has created.
You will have the opportunity to reframe your thinking about creation in the light of Scripture and to discover how to live as a caretaker of God's good earth.
"Scott Higgins is one of Australia’s leading Christian thinkers on matters of social justice and public faith. These studies – A Beautiful World – remind us of God's grace in creation. They pull no punches when it comes to outlining the deep scars we are inflicting on God’s creation. Ultimately, though, they are an inspiring, practical and hope-filled call to prayerful action to love God and honour His creation and to love our global neighbours in a warming world."
BEN THURLEY, National Coordinator, Micah Australia
"Are you interested in seeing freshly what the Bible says about the created world, informed by current biblical scholarship? Are you looking for some practical steps that relate to what is happening on earth today? Scott brings the wealth of his experience together to ensure you do both: the bible is to lead to action, and action is to be consistent with God's purposes. He writes with captivating ease, and you will be inspired by his use of the Bible and story-telling, and challenged to implement eco-disciplines."
DR JOHN OLLEY, Old Testament Research Fellow, Vose Seminary
