Doctrine of Creation

William Jennings says,

A Christian doctrine of creation should orientate us towards thinking about

• place
• habitation
• where we live and what we make.

Instead of us obsessing over questions of:

• origins
• the relationship of theology and science
• evolutionary theoreticals.

Thinking about these matters has drawn the doctrine of creation into a deep hole, out of which it has not emerged in the last forty years.

The church knows how to think about time, but it does not what to think about place?

I don’t just live in a house and I don’t just go to a church. I live in a place. We need to start thinking about what it means to engage with a place.
