My friends think it's quaint and old fashioned of me, and aquantances are quite shocked when they find out I'm a church go-er by choice and not by obligation. It's just all in how you interpret the Word, and I choose to believe in loving each other, forgiveness, and being a steward of God's resources. Great post!

We/they have held those beliefs long before Green or Sustainability became buzz words. Currently it is called Earth Stewardship and similar titles in churches. Here is a 2006 example in the Oregonian of church led initiatives. http://tinyurl.com/a49fus If you reach out, even in Portland, you will find many people of similar beliefs in both church and sustainability. Please contact me thru my website if you'd be interested in discussing this further.
