Beneath the jack pines at the edge of a small pond in the northern Michigan woods, the males were calling their mates. A professor and a group of ecology students sat speechless as closer and closer, louder and louder, more and more peepers joined in chorus. There was just light enough to see them, crawling up a bracken fern to find a singing perch, filling their throats with air like tiny balloons about to burst and then giving forth at close range an ear-splitting 'preeeeep.; . . . Now we were immersed in the peepers' lives, not ours. And when the concert ended and the peepers had gone away, we laughed together for the sheer joy and power of life displayed for a moment in the grand efforts of one tiny creature to be fruitful and multiply.\" Combining compelling stories with both biblical and scientific investigation, \u003cem\u003eRedeeming Creation\u003c\/em\u003e addresses the ecological crisis we face today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epopulation explosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003erain forests stripped bare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edestruction of animal habitat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ethe death of entire species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003edepletion of the ozone layer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eglobal warming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors, four biologists and teachers, believe that we can face these dilemmas with hope.

In the light of Scripture and the presence of God, we can face these crises with hope. More than an investigation of the environmental crisis, this book brings Scripture into fruitful dialogue with current scientific findings and commitments. What emerges is a clarion call to a biblically informed individual and corporate response to our creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 214\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 8.22 x 5.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 06, 1996\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52740521984307,"sku":"9780830818723","price":40.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/MlFiRkhTbUl3c09SdjZFS2QzWk00UT09.webp?v=1764075985","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/redeeming-creation-the-biblical-basis-for-environmental-stewardship-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
