C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and George McDonald use trees to overcome evil. These practices reflect teaching in the Bible, where God uses trees not only to teach but to provide images of brokenness and grace.

Matthew Sleeth, MD, a former emergency room physician and chief of the hospital medical staff, resigned from his position to teach, preach, and write about the biblical call to be good stewards of God's creation. He joins Shane to share how pausing in Creation, considering trees, leads to robust lessons and redirection in life to find purpose in God's grace in the shade and life provided by trees.
