Keeping Creation: A 5-Week Study - Paperback

A Biblical Approach to Creation Care

Keeping Creation offers a comprehensive 5-week scriptural study that explores the biblical foundation for environmental stewardship. This study guide examines creation care through the lens of faith, demonstrating how caring for God's creation connects to politics, economics, food, energy, and daily Christian living.

What's Inside This Study

Authors Caleb Cray Haynes, Ryan Fasani, Megan Pardue, and Todd Womack provide a Scripture-based framework designed specifically for small groups. Each chapter combines theological interpretation with contemporary application, moving beyond reflection to actionable practices. The study addresses how creation care intersects with multiple aspects of life while remaining political but not partisan.

Every chapter includes discussion questions that facilitate meaningful group conversations and practical suggestions for creation-serving habits that participants can implement together. This structure makes the study accessible for groups ready to think critically and act intentionally.

Understanding Our Role in Creation

The study emphasizes that as citizens of the kingdom of God, Christians were created to be citizens of the earth. Creation care is not an isolated cause but encompasses everything we see and some things we don't see. The interconnected nature of our planet means what occurs on one side affects the other, making environmental stewardship a universal concern for believers.

Keeping Creation helps Christians understand humanity's role on this interconnected planet that teems with the life God created. The study explores how God designed a beautiful world where each piece depends on all other pieces, and how it brings God joy to see creation working as intended.

Perfect for Small Group Study

This paperback guide provides five weeks of structured content ideal for church small groups, Bible study gatherings, or faith-based environmental groups. The format encourages both individual reflection and collective action, helping participants prioritize biblical creation care in their daily lives.

Published by Foundry Publishing in June 2023, this resource equips Christians with the theological understanding and practical tools needed to fulfill their calling to tend and serve the earth.

Creation care is political but not partisan. What occurs on one side of the planet affects the other side of the planet. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we were created to be citizens of the earth. Creation care is not an isolated cause that Christians can set apart from the rest of life. Creation involves everything we see (and some things we don't see). So to talk about caring for creation is to talk about politics, economics, food, energy, freedom, and our faith. Across five weeks of scriptural study, interpretation, and contemporary application, Keeping Creation offers a biblical exploration of the call on God's people to tend and serve the earth. Authors Caleb Cray Haynes, Ryan Fasani, Megan Pardue, and Todd Womack offer a Scripture-based guide for small groups who are ready not only to think and reflect but also to act. Each chapter includes discussion questions and suggestions for new, creation-serving habits and practices that participants can begin to work on together. God has created a beautiful world that is meant to be interconnected, each piece dependent on all the other pieces, and it brings God joy to see creation working as intended. Keeping Creation will help Christians prioritize and understand humanity's role on the interconnected planet that teems with the life God created.
