2012: All Creation Sings: The Voice of God in Nature
by J. Ellsworth Kalas
All Creation Sings wants us to go further than the “green” movement and being simply conscious of the wonder of our creation and the necessity of caring for it passionately. The book calls us to not only see and be grateful for these wonders but to be responsible for them, to go beyond its exquisite beauty to learn some of the lessons it would teach us, lessons about both life and God. A discussion guide is included.
