Rocks Know Better | Romans 8:18-25

What does it mean when the Bible says "creation groans"? In this imaginative and thought-provoking sermon on Romans 8.18–25, Revd. Mark explores how even everyday objects—phones, pebbles, plastic bottles—might have something to say about how we relate to God’s world. Drawing on Scripture and East-Asian wisdom, we ask: Is creation crying out not just from pollution, but from being misused and misunderstood? Have we asked created things to be gods, instead of gifts? This message invites us to hear the cries of a groaning world and to respond with reverence, justice, and hope—living not as consumers, but as worshippers who treat the earth as sacred.
