GREEN LIKE GOD Unlocking the Divine Plan for Our Planet

Merritt's authenticity when he calls himself a "recovering anti-environmentalist" is believable. He speaks with warmth about God, calling Him "green," and he believes that God speaks through nature. He cites statistics and scripture and uses personal anecdotes with dramatic intensity to illustrate how the term "green" has become corrupted and misunderstood. His discourse is rooted in the Bible, not the concept of climate change espoused by Al Gore and others, which he says is divisive. With an energetic narration he convinces listeners that God calls them to understand their appointed, moral role as caretakers of the earth. Included are suggestions and resources for how to go green. Merritt's faith-driven ideas, cutting-edge theme, and compelling delivery are convincing.
