Inhaltsangabe

How can a Christian respond in faith to the environmental challenges of our time? In Why Creation Care Matters, Sally Shaw offers a theologically grounded and carefully researched exploration of creation care as a vital expression of Christian discipleship. Blending biblical reflection, personal narrative, and research to develop an arts-based workshop, the author demonstrates how creative and participatory practices can deepen theological understanding and inspire faithful action. Tracing her own vocational journey, Sally guides readers through the conception, design, and implementation of a creation care workshop. She presents both the theoretical framework and the practical outworking of this work, showing how embodied, creative engagement can help individuals and communities connect Christian belief with ecological responsibility. The book unfolds in three parts. Part One establishes the theological, methodological, and contextual foundations of the research. Part Two offers a detailed examination of two workshops, exploring their practice and outcomes. The final section synthesises key findings and provides recommendations for future workshops, followed by a postscript reflecting on workshops conducted after the research was completed. Thoughtful, practical, and biblically rooted, Why Creation Care Matters will be of particular value to pastors, church leaders, educators, and researchers, as well as individual Christians seeking a reflective and tested approach to caring for God's creation.
