Description
 
In an age of "going green" and placing an emphasis on a camp's role in teaching creation care, it is important that staff in faith-based/Christian camps can make the connection between their faith and caring for the earth. In their role as environmental leaders, staff members need to be able to include God in the discussion and activities in which they lead campers. Becoming an Environmental Leader for Your Campers examines five theological concepts related to being an environmental leader. The DVD also features brief "talking points" for staff to view, as well as a companion CD-ROM that provides directions for activities that staff training leaders can engage in with their staffs to provide an experiential learning option for each of the concepts.

Among the topics covered:
  • Five ideas about God and creation
  • Opening the eyes of campers to the goodness of creation
  • God made everything connected
  • Caring for creation
  • The true meaning of "dominion"
  • Teaching campers to be stewards of creation
