Senior Pastor at the Vineyard Church of Ann Arbor, Michigan. Ken is a recent participant in Scientists and Evangelicals United to Protect Creation. In collaboration with Dr. Joel Hunter, Ken has compiled “Creation Care: An Introduction for Busy Pastors,” a resource to assist pastors in equipping their congregations to care for creation.

Executive Director of Floresta, a Christian nonprofit organization, which reverses deforestation and poverty by transforming the lives of the rural poor in Mexico, Haiti, Dominican Republic and Tanzania. Scott has held this position for ten years, and has worked with Floresta for fourteen years, after beginning as a volunteer. Floresta has planted over 3.2 million trees, offered over 3500 small business loans, and advanced the gospel in over 120 communities.

These are four quite different speakers, all of which I enjoyed. If you needed to look at only one, I would pick the presentation by either Ken Wilson or Scott Sabin's.
