STEWARDS OF EDEN QUOTES, DR. GIL HAAS, SAINT AUGUSTINE OF CANTERBURY EPISCOPAL CHURCH, OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA

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.
