What if protecting the environment wasn’t a political issue, but a spiritual one? This week in our “Be the Church” series, we explore what it means to till and keep the earth as God’s sacred gift. Genesis 2:15 reminds us that the first human calling wasn’t to build churches, but to tend a garden. From thin places to neighborhood compost bins, we reflect on how awe, gratitude, and reverence can lead us into lives of faithful stewardship. With wisdom from poets, prophets, and Jesus himself—who pointed to birds, seeds, and soil to reveal the kingdom—we remember that creation isn’t just scenery. It’s sacrament. Tune in to hear how care for the earth becomes care for our neighbors, both now and seven generations from now.
