Summary
Appreciating God's Creation Through Scripture offers readers an opportunity to reflect on passages from both the Old and New Testaments that will prompt them to be not only more aware of God's creation but also more appreciative of all the gifts found in that creation. Through her choice of passages - some more familiar than others - the author enlivens the Scriptures for contemporary believers and encourages readers to be more cognizant of the magnificent interdependence of all of creation, to value that fruitful interdependence and to deepen their respectful awe of that creation.
