God's Good World Quotes

“The first thing that this group of believers must do is learn from their guide where they are and what dangers they are facing because they have strayed from the path that has already been marked for them and for which the guide has all resources that are necessary.”
― Jonathan R. Wilson, God's Good World: Reclaiming the Doctrine of Creation

“When Christian teaching fails to connect beauty to the blessing of creation, an alternative account of beauty may develop. In some cases, beauty is appropriated and affirmed as a tool for witness to the gospel. The mistake here is subtle: rather than celebrating beauty as an aspect of the blessing of creation and thus an essential part of the good news of creation and its redemption, beauty becomes merely instrumental to Christian witness.”
