What Does Environmental Stewardship Have to Do With the Faith? Fact is, caring for the environment was God’s idea before it made the agenda of any political party. In Genesis chapter 9, the covenant was made, and it became our responsibility to care for creation. This was the topic of discussion at Northland's Creation Care Conference (C3). Co-sponsored by ENERGY STAR™ and the National Association of Evangelicals, the event was held at Northland, A Church Distributed in Longwood, Florida, on February 21, 2008.

The Perfect Fit
Part four in a four-part miniseries on the narrative of creation (Genesis 1:18-25). In Genesis 2:19-25, we find Adam in the Garden of Eden naming the animals. Nothing is a perfect fit relationally until God creates Eve, a perfect fit. This sermon explores how we are completed by others. We must accept that God has put us with the people who are different than us for a reason. Both in the marriage relationship and in other relationships in our lives, God is intentional in fitting us together. A message from Dr. Joel C. Hunter.
