Synopsis

Is Earth stewardship biblical? Yes. Here is one of the best collections of Creation Care Scriptures to be found. Christianity is inseparably linked to the natural world. People of faith contribute a unique perspective to earth stewardship, a ministry of praise and commitment. Christians are called to restore the land, to build and to plant, to use resources wisely, to marvel at the planet's complexity and beauty, to accept that humans are part of an earth we need to cherish. Positive and inspirational, this book is a ready resource for pastors, teachers, camp and retreat leaders. Easy to read, it fills the need for devotional and small group study. Seekers will find the basic precepts of the Christian faith. Cherish the Earth will be a welcome companion for every Christian nature lover and Earth steward across our threatened yet priceless globe.
