Susan Haynes | Genesis 2.8-15 | Romans 8.18-23
Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground - trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil... The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.
It's always been God's purpose for us to take care of the created world, and as we know only too well, we've made a mess of it. In this service we discussed why this matters and some of the ways by which we can put things right. In the recording we hear from service leader John Lanchbury, preacher Susan Haynes, reader Chris Powell, Bobbie Frere speaking on behalf of the Eco group, and members of the congregation.
An edited video recording of the Sunday service can be viewed on YouTube.
