On this week's Radio Hour we chat with Luke Gascho Executive Director of the Merry Lea Environmental Learning Center of Goshen College in Wolf Lake, IN and author of Creation Care: Keepers of the Earth. Listen in as we talk about Merry Lea's spiritual foundations and the center's intersection between ecology and religion. We'll also talk about how the Gascho's live out their biblical values in their home and personal life.

With over 1,000 acres of land Merry Lea became the responsibility of Goshen College in 1980 through a gift from Lee and Mary Jane Rieth. Goshen College is a four-year undergraduate institution where students study liberal arts in a setting that has the teachings of Jesus as a central focus. Goshen College at Merry Lea is committed to development of a multifaceted environmental program that teaches about Christian stewardship of natural and human resources.
