  • What the Bible Says About Climate Change
    Oct 12 2025

    Every headline reminds us: creation is under pressure. Floods displace families. Forests burn. Food prices rise. So what does the Bible really say about climate change?

    In this short daily devotional, Salvation Army officer and pastor Rob Westwood-Payne shares a Christian perspective on creation care from Genesis 1:26 (NLT): “Then God said, ‘Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish… the birds… the livestock… and the small animals.’”

    We were called to rule creation, not wreck it. But too often, we have exploited rather than stewarded. The Bible teaches that in Christ there is another way - his Kingdom is about restoration, not consumption. Small, faithful choices matter: reducing food waste, heating wisely, reusing, recycling, cutting down plastic, walking instead of driving, and praying for those already suffering.

    This video is for you if you are:

    * A Christian seeking daily encouragement and simple Bible application

    * Wondering “what does the Bible say about climate change?”

    * Exploring faith and asking how God’s people should respond to a groaning world

    👉 Discover why caring for creation is part of our worship, and how small acts of service point to the kingdom of God.

  • Why the Earth Groans - and What God Promises
    Oct 11 2025

    The Bible says, “For we know that all creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time” (Romans 8:22, NLT). Look around - rivers rise, fields fail, heat records are broken again and again. Creation is groaning. But those groans are not just noise; they are a call from God to care.

    In this short Christian devotional, Salvation Army officer and pastor Rob Westwood-Payne explores what Romans 8 teaches us about creation’s cry and God’s promise to make all things new. Sin bent God’s good world, but the hope of the gospel is that Christ will return, creation will be renewed, and love will have the last word.

    This daily devotional is for you if you are:

    * A Christian seeking daily encouragement and simple Bible application

    * Wondering how faith speaks into climate change, floods, drought, and a groaning world

    * Exploring faith and asking, “Where is God when creation suffers?”

    🌍 In today’s devotional you’ll learn:

    * Why creation groans and what that means for us

    * How small acts - recycling, wasting less, planting, serving, and praying - point to God’s kingdom

    * How the Spirit helps us live in hope, even in the face of climate chaos

    👉 Don’t just scroll past the world’s pain. Hear God’s call in creation’s groan, and discover the hope Christ gives.
