BioLogos Voices speaker Richard Lindroth will speak on Sunday, January 12, 2020 at Grantham Church in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. His talks are part of Grantham Church’s “For the Beauty of the Earth” series, taking place on Sundays in January 2020. Lindroth will present “The Art, Science, and Intersection of Loving God and Loving Nature” for the church’s 9:00am Learning Community, as well as “Climate Change, Creation Care, and the Pursuit of Truth in a Post-Truth World” for the sermon at 10:30am.

For the Beauty of the Earth is a series that invites followers of Jesus to proclaim and embody the liberating work of the gospel by caring for creation. Creation care is not only a biblical mandate that requires ecological obedience, it is also an affirmation of our belief in the Kingdom of God and the hope of resurrection—when God will make all things new! Join us for our January series as we call the Body of Christ to rise above partisan politics and agree with God that his good creation is worth saving.
