      Creation is about more than HOW God created the world. It’s about why. From the beginning, God’s purpose has been to dwell with His image bearers in unbroken fellowship. It’s tempting to think that our sin ruined that plan, and that Jesus was God’s Plan B. But as Edward Klink says, Jesus and the Church were always Plan A. More than that, God is not replacing creation; He’s renewing it, and you and I have been invited to participate in that renewal as God’s agents of redemption. Klink’s latest book, The Beginning and End of All Things, will give you a bigger, more accurate perspective on God’s plan for creation and your place in it.
