Description

The Bible reveals a God whose creative power and loving care embrace all that exists, from earth and sky and sea to every creature. This comprehensive biblical theology of creation care explores the significance of the Bible's extensive teaching about the natural world, inviting readers to open their Bibles afresh to discover a deeper understanding of God's purpose and humankind's responsibility to care for creation. The authors, father and son team Douglas and Jonathan Moo, carefully analyze the most up-to-date scientific data about the state of our world, uncovering answers to questions such as the purpose of the non-human creation and the impact of the narrative of the 'Fall' on our understanding of the natural world. By exploring the contours of the biblical storyline, readers can gain a fresh perspective on the role of creation care within the charge to proclaim the gospel and care for the poor. A joyful vision of the world as God's creation, in which readers can rediscover who they truly are as creatures called to love and serve the Creator, is at the heart of this book.
