EARTH DAY

Why do some environmentalists go to the extreme?
1. Some believe the physical realm is all we’ve got
2. Some believe animals are our ancestors
3. Some believe big business is evil

Why don’t some Christians care?
1. Some fail to correctly interpret key passages
2. Some fail to listen to God first and politicians second
3. Some fail to be stewards in light of their eschatology

Principles for a Christian environmentalist
1. God is the owner of the world
2. God is the sustainer of the world
3. God has made us stewards of the creation
