The Green Bible

The definitive green movement Bible that shows God is "green" and helps us see how we can care for and protect God's creation.

The Green Bible equips and encourages you to see God's vision for creation and helps you engage in the work of healing and sustaining it. With over 1,000 references to the earth in the Bible, compared to 490 references to heaven and 530 references to love, the Bible carries a powerful message for the earth.
