Listen ""Creation Care as Christian Mission" with Mike Perry"
Episode Synopsis
This is the talk from our 10:45 service on 2 November. The reading was Colossians 1:15-20 and Matthew 6:25-34.
Our visiting speaker, Mike Perry, from A Rocha explored why creation care is central to Christian faith, not merely an optional extra. Drawing on biblical texts, he explained how caring for God's earth connects to our first commandment in Genesis, Christ's role in holding creation together, and our call to love our neighbours. The talk highlighted how the natural world teaches us about God and worships Him, whilst emphasising the urgent need for environmental action. The speaker outlined A Rocha UK's work, including their EcoChurch programme, nature reserves, and resources for individuals and churches seeking to engage with creation care as part of their discipleship and mission.
