ABOUT THIS COURSE

In the Book of Genesis, God’s plan for the Greening of the Earth only gets two paragraphs: and they only refer to flowering plants. However, with our ever-growing human ability to understand the language in which God’s own Old Diaries are written, the story of the Greening of Earth has expanded into one of the most wonderous in the whole of Creation. Join us for a weekend of talks, expeditions, and indoor encounter sessions, during all of which we will keep a prayerful eye on what it means for our understanding of God’s plan for creation and how we live our own lives.
