Video: John Piper speaking on God's glory in creation set to amazing images

A John Piper sermon extract on how creation displays God's Glory set to music and beautiful photographs. Really helpful to worship.

Listen to entire album: Split EP Jamie Barnes & Brooks Ritter

This album is great! It's a split EP and both sides are quite different but equally good. The lyrics to their songs are very thoughtful as they're both steeped in hymns. The music is also excellent with each song developing and not being simply a 3 chord verse chorus verse affair. I've put the video trailer of the album underneath the player in this post. I'd recommend watching it to get an idea of what the album is like, it's filled with some great images! You can buy the album here or on emusic.

Here are two interesting videos to watch one after the other, to show our effect on the environment. The first Polar bear wakes in the pristine snow, the second at the building site for oil company Eni. We were called by God to lovingly steward His creation. What are we doing?

Communities of small groups living as missionaries together to the people in their culture. Read more about them here.
