Nature, God, and Pulpit collects and interprets the biblical texts on the relationship between God and creation. Designed for the church body and especially for preachers, this book is particularly timely because, as Elizabeth Achtemeier points out, few subjects have been more neglected and less examined by American pulpits than the relation between nature and God.
Clearly articulating what the Bible says about the material world and God’s relation to it, Achtemeier responds to recent discussion of biblical ecology and critiques today’s many popular theologies of nature. This distillation of her findings is a treasure trove of material for sermons and pastoral work relating to God and creation. Her passionate call for preachers to thoroughly examine and preach the Bible will inspire a celebration of how God relates to the material world.
While written primarily for preachers, Nature, God, and Pulpit provides provocative reading for many others as well—seminarians, homiletics students, teachers, and anyone who wishes to better understand the Christian view of the bond between creator and creation.
