The Environment And The Christian

Plot

"A crisis of degradation is enveloping earth. never before have human beings wielded so much power over creation." The writer of these words, Calvin B. DeWitt, and other contributors to this book confront all human beings - Christians in particular - with degradations threatening their planet: Land exploitation, species extinction, soil destruction, waste mismanagement, global toxification, atmospheric contamination & cultural subversion. The authors approach these dilemmas with backgrounds in environmental, ethical, and philosophical studie. From solid research readers learn the extent of the damage and how to respond. This , however, is more than an ecological assessment. The authors are Christians who apply all of Scripture to their understanding of what Christ's lordship over creation implies for aware stewards of the earth.
