In GREEN LIKE GOD, Jonathan Merritt gently and insightfully observes that the bible has a lot to say about environmental problems like unclean water, material waste, over consumption, air pollution, and global warming. In fact, Jonathan writes that “in the book of Genesis, God went green and never looked back.” Relying heavily on scripture, Jonathan gives the case for green living, but not because it’s trendy and hip. Rather, it’s part of living rightly as a believer. It’s an act of obedience to our Creator-God.
GREEN LIKE GOD is at once practical, prescriptive, and conversational in tone. The author looks at a number of trends with tips to help the reader wade into the world of creation care living. An appendix includes suggestions of things we can do. In addition, the book includes interviews with everyday Christians to tell the story of the journey to environmental stewardship among people of faith.
This is the book that Christians are longing for and need today. Written for a new generation of Christians who are struggling with how to deal with the important issue of creation-care and green living, GREEN LIKE GOD is both highly relevant and theologically sound. It will have a profound impact on how Christians live and interact with the world today.
*I will offer one copy for giveaway per 10 comments up to 5 copies copies available.*

We have been trying to live with as little impact as possible in this modern world.
We have always gardened . We do not use chemicals. We use composted manure for fertilizer. We have always had a compost pile. Leaves, grass clippings, manure (cow and llama), and kitchen garbage that we do not feed to the peacocks or our daughter’s pig go into the compost pile. I’ve been canning, freezing, drying, and preserving what we grow Since the 70’s.

Well, I’ve made many changes to try to “green up.” Recently I’ve purchased some lovely vintage hankies to use instead of disposable tissues for most things.
But I’ve also starting using furoshiki as a supplement to my reusable bags. They are the traditional method of wrapping and carrying packages. It’s a square of cloth tied in different ways, and they can be very pretty. There’s even a special wrap intended to carry two books!
I’ve used hankies, dish clothes and kitchen towels, bandannas, and flower sack towels; as soon as I beat my sewing machine into submission, I’m going to sew some from the fat quarters of quilter’s cotton I have sitting around my house.
