This Sunday we read the story the Old Turtle by Douglas Wood, this story connects to Christian beliefs by showing that God is the loving Creator of all things and that people are made in God’s image. Like the Bible’s creation story in Genesis, the book teaches that God is present in nature and in every living being. When humans forget this and harm the Earth or each other, they move away from God’s purpose. Old Turtle’s message reminds us to live with love, peace, and respect for creation — reflecting God’s goodness in the world.
