When he learned he was dying from HPV caused throat cancer, he turned to the one person he knew he could trust, his friend Patricia Kennealy, to take care of his estate when he became too sick. What she didn't know was he would leave her a terrible mess, no money and a crisis that threatened to cost her family everything they owned.

It will flame out, like shining from shook foil; It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil Crushed." -- "God's Grandeur" by Gerard Manley HopkinsCharged With Grandeur: Sermons and Practices for Delighting in God's Creation is a collection of sermons that encourage congregations to improve their stewardship of the environment by delighting in God's creation. Each sermon is paired with questions for reflection that could be used in follow up discussions, as well as "take action" suggestions for congregational participation.Author Christopher Keating wrote this book with the purpose to assist preachers as they prepare sermons about the environment.

Yet the Bible is filled with ecological references that point to God's concern with the natural world. Charged With Grandeur provides resources that help congregations celebrate creation while also discovering ways of improving our stewardship. This is an excellent resource for pastors, church members, as well as congregational Earth Care teams and seminary students.Included in this book: Questions for reflection and action Ideas for ways individuals can "take action" Sermons that incorporate creation care elements Ways to discover connecting environmentally oriented scriptures into worship and preachingSermon titles included:Visiting Our StuffCasting Out into the DeepListening to the Song of CreationPaths of Danger Christopher Keating is pastor of Woodlawn Chapel Presbyterian Church in suburban St. Louis, Missouri.
