In a society where we think of so many things as disposable, where we expect to be constantly discarding last year's gadget and replacing it with this year's model - do we end up tempted to think of people and relationships as disposable? ... If we live in a context where we construct everything from computers to buildings to relationships on the assumption that they'll need to be replaced before long, what have we lost? ... God is involved in building to last … God doesn't give up on the material of human lives ... and God asks us to approach one another and our physical world with the same commitment ... God doesn't do 'waste' ... Rowan WilliamsCheck out this New Year's message from Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury. Be sure and give it a few moments because what starts and ends as an encouragement to recycle is really about something much more important.

I have been gathering material for the past few months in preparation for a 4 week - God is Green series for Trinity.
