"Following Jesus is good for the planet." This is the biblical premise of the Serving God: Saving the Planet DVD curriculum for groups by Matthew Sleeth, MD. This two-part film series and guidebook experience for groups is a creative and compelling call for Christians to embrace sustainable living out of love for God, neighbor, and all of creation. Each week, participants view one of the 12 films, utilizing the accompanying guidebook for group discussion and outside study.

Serving God Saving the Planet is a video-based learning experience that will broaden the conversation with a focus on the dangers of materialism, workaholism, and spiritual bankruptcy---as well as God's endless invitations for us to enjoy what He has created. This twelve-session video-based study provides simple, everyday ways to focus on stewardship and sustainability according to Scripture. In the first six sessions, Dr. Matthew Sleeth explores his personal salvation experience and desire to follow Jesus in the context of the love story God tells in Genesis. Dr. Sleeth guides readers through each of the created elements, reminding them of the God-given commission to 'tend and protect the planet.' In the final six sessions, Dr. Sleeth examines how God's original command to 'tend and protect the planet' extends into the actions and activities of every Christian's everyday lives. Use this Guidebook in conjunction with the Serving God Saving the Planet DVD to maximize your study.

Matthew Sleeth, MD, is the executive director of Blessed Earth, an educational nonprofit that inspires and equips Christians to become better stewards of the earth. Together with his wife, Nancy, and two children, he helps lead the growing creation care movement. www.blessedearth.org
