Environmentalism is challenging for many Christians. Some believe the world will end soon, therefore, we need to save the planet, even if it means eliminating a portion of the population.
Others exploit the planet and ignore environmental concerns for the sake of enhancing profits. The Biblical view is somewhere in between.
In Genesis, God gave man dominion over the earth, but expected us to be good stewards of His creation.
Deuteronomy 4:19 cautions us, “And beware not to lift up your eyes to heaven and see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, and be drawn away and worship them and serve them.”
As business leaders we are to be good stewards of the environment, but careful not to worship what God has created.
