Creation Time
Climate change and God's purposes: sermon notes from Operation Noah for Creation Time 2012 Operation Noah’s theology think tank has prepared these notes to help people who are preaching on the Lectionary for Creation Time 2012 (Sundays in September). We have tried to relate some of the lectionary readings and Collects for each Sunday to themes from our Ash Wednesday Declaration. Obviously some texts are more appropriate to address issues of climate change than others, but over these weeks we have underlined our Declaration themes of joy, responsibility, repentance, neighbour love, justice and hope. It is our hope and prayer that these will be a guide and help to people preaching God's Word during Creation Time this year. The five studies are on the topics of: · God’s gift and our flourishing (September 2nd) · Loving our neighbours (September 9th) · Listening to the wise (September 23rd) · Hope in difficult times (September 30th). · Eucharistic prayer for Creation time
