The Way of Love 5 - Caretakers and Representatives

Listen to Cn Tim Clayton as we continue our spiritual formation class and journey, The Way of Love.

Part 5, Caretakers and Representatives.
Join Tim as we look at the way of love as a part of the created order.
We take a look at the story that the Bible gives us about God and his non-human creation: such a beautiful story, and so much fuller than we have been taught.
The Beginning: A Story of Wonder
The Catastrophe: Spoiling the Party, What Then?
The Liberator: Nature’s Revenge and Release
A Future and a Hope: A Spirituality for Living as a Spiritual Being in a Body in a Wild and Multi-faceted Physical World

Friends, the word “repent” comes from the two Greek words “meta-noia”, which mean a way of thinking about everything. In other words, yes, we need to repent: we need a new meta narrative, story of everything. But my conviction is that we do not need to leave our faith and its resources to find it, we simply need to let them say more of what they always have been saying.

Special Guest: Jennifer Drummond

Journal Questions:
1. Can your name a time when you have felt profound wonder in the beauty of nature?

2. Did you sense God in that time? Did it seem that he was near? If so, how did that for you and how did you respond? If not, does speaking out to him in a moment like that make sense to you?

3. What aspect of hearing the biblical story this way spoke to you? Why and what did it say to you?

4. When you think about the challenges regarding the natural world in these times, which one is most troubling to you?
