Here are a few resources that you might find helpful as you preach, teach, and lead your congregation in creation care:
- Sustainable Sanctuary Coalition’s Interfaith Worship Resource on Earth Stewardship 2014. This collection of resources is intended to assist you in making your worship plans around an Earth stewardship theme. It includes sample sermons, prayers, worship ideas, quotes, scripture suggestions, denominational environmental statements, and links to additional resources.
- The NRSV Green Bible, published by Harper One, 2008. Biblical texts relating to creation are printed in green for easy reference. It also includes scholarly articles, biblical stewardship themes, prayers, links to further information, and a green subject index.
