Montana Wilderness
Faith and God’s Lands in Montana
The contemporary ideal of wilderness in America encompasses more than the deserts, remote places, and uninhabited lands reflected in biblical words for wilderness. More than being an
uninhabited borderland for refuge, escape, and cattle-grazing, American wilderness signifies our attempt to celebrate and preserve God’s Creation, and observe Sabbath wisdom by restraining productive human enterprise.
About out Work
The Eco-Justice Program has partnered with the Montana Association of Churches to help to protect public lands in Montana for the use and benefit of individual communities and future
generations. By lifting the faith voice on land protection through statements like their recent Pastoral Letter, the partnership aims to educate both the faith and secular communities about the importance of wilderness and land stewardship from a faith-based perspective.
