By Noah Guthrie. Our labors for creation, muddying ourselves so that the creatures of mud can be dignified, are profoundly Christ-like. What is the incarnation but Jesus plunging in the muck to drag TVs and shopping carts from the creek, striving to heal the creation He loves?
From the Biologos Language of God podcast. In this episode we hear the story of three places where people are caring for the land that reveal an important truth: as we care for and find connection with the land, the land cares for and supports us. And it leads us to ask, can our relationship with God be complete without a healthy relationship with the rest of creation?
By Heidy Sumei Chuang. To paint the butterfly, to reveal its minute beauty in extravagant brushstrokes and living color, is to live in wonder and hope.
Video by Heidy Sumei Chuang, A Rocha USA Advisor and Artist Partner, shares the powerful story of “The Butterfly Project”, where small acts of care for creation transform both human communities and the environment. Heidy’s journey of caring for monarchs in her neighborhood and fostering a creation care mindset in the children who grow up there is truly inspiring.

By Heidy Chuang. If the Church, in a world full of industry and agenda, can create spacious places for artists to flourish, they will become the storytellers, teachers, and hope-bringers God has designed them to be.
By Noah Guthrie. What can it look like, in practice, to treat creation as “sacred”? Part of what it may look like is entering a conversation with our landscapes and their species. It may look like asking, “What does the Living God – the Source, Redeemer, and Sustainer of this place – invite us to hear? And once we have listened, how might God invite us to respond?”
