"God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars." -Martin Luther (1483-1546) From the first verse in Genesis to the final passages in Revelation, the Bible carries a powerful message for the earth. It is a message of God working through and in creation. Yet it is also a message of how our connection to God's good creation has been severed. The Green Bible Devotional will be a source of meaning and inspiration for humanity and our role in a sustainable world. In over sixty daily readings, topically arranged with green-letter passages of scripture from The Green Bible along with guided meditations and prayers, you are invited to reflect on the timely concerns facing our planet today: responsible use of land, clean water, fresh air, protection for animals, health for all humanity, and our responsibility as caretakers of creation. Deepen your calling to care for the earth, with God as your guide. By identifying God's fingerprint on all of creation-from the air we breathe to cleansing streams of water to the intricacies of our humanity-a biblical undestanding of caring for creation can be restored.
