Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

In 1968, Paul Ehrlich’s book, The Population Bomb, proclaimed that overpopulation was going to cause a worldwide famine. Ehrlich wrote, “By 1985 enough millions will have died to reduce the earth’s population to an acceptable level, like 1.5 billion people.”

His urgings of mandatory population control resulted in millions of unborn and aborted babies. Despite Ehrlich’s flawed predictions, he still believes overpopulation is a problem.

Jack Ma and Elon Musk, however, recently announced that the biggest problem facing the world is population collapse, not overpopulation.

Who are we to believe?

In Genesis 9:1, God told Noah and his sons, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth.”

Many flawed theories surface in business. Carefully consider each, but remember that God’s plan works best.
