The natural beauty of the forest has inspired artists, poets, and children alike. Forests provide food and habitat for many living creatures while performing valuable functions to the benefit of every living thing. Trees harvested from the forests of the world provide the raw materials for many of the products we rely upon each day. The importance of trees is even evident in Scripture where God had trees play a significant role in the unfolding story of the Bible. When we consider the value of forests, where can we look to find the wisdom to use them in a responsible way?

Take a breathtaking tour of the woodlands with host and narrator Mart DeHaan. You'll visit fascinating locations in the United States, England, and Lebanon and hear from Bible, botany, and ecology scholars, to broaden your understanding of how trees function and influence our lives.
