Stewards of Eden

God is nature, nature is God.
Patrick Kato

Trees are the earth’s endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.
Rabindranath Tagore

Art is man’s nature; nature is God’s art.
Phillip James Bailey

I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.
George Washington Carver

Man is the most insane species.  He worships an invisible God and destroys a visible Nature unaware that this Nature he’s destroying is this God he’s worshiping. 
Hubert Reeves

God is like a beautiful flower blooming in nature.  He is easy to wait by and not notice but those who stop to enjoy His elegance and grace, their day becomes brighter. 
Tom Krause

To pay homage to beauty is to admire Nature; to admire Nature is to worship God.
Epictertus

My profession is to always find God in nature.
Henry David Thoreau

In keeping with St. Augustine’s commitment this year to be consciously aware of and contribute to a theology and ministry of creation care, articles derived from past Stewards of Eden will be quoted in this space in parallel with our six week class at 9:30 AM of the same name.
