The Book of Nature (Rev. Steve Blackmer)

I recommend that people read from the Book of Nature. From ancient times, philosophers and theologians have understood God’s self-revelation as found in both scripture and in the astounding beauty, complexity, and mystery of the natural world around us. In this time when feel separate and surrounded by death, the Book of Nature reminds us that we are surrounded by life. Read!
