I have mentioned several times that not only are more liberal churches upholding the importance of "creation care," it is increasingly on the agenda for more conservative churches. An excellent example is the website Deep Green Conversation http://deepgreenconversation.org/ which is a creative exploration of a number of issues.
The podcast, a conversation with Dr. Matthew Sleeth is intelligent and expresses a strong Christian conviction about living lightly on the Earth. Sleeth's commitment to simplifying his life is inspirational. The theological language is different from what you might hear in most United Church congregations, but so what.
I am encouraged that the Christian base for Creation Care is broadening. Conversation between people of various theological outlooks and amongst different religions is essential to a "deep green conversation."
I invite you to snoop around the website by clicking on the link above. What do you think?
