Care for Creation

In today’s culture, we tend to see one of two extremes when it comes to environmentalism.  We see a lot of “earth worship,” and talk about needing to protect the earth for its own sake.  And, as an apparent knee-jerk reaction to that, we see a lot of Christians acting as though it doesn’t matter what we do to the environment.  Unfortunately, we don’t often see a balanced biblical perspective: God has given humanity stewardship of the rest of His creation, and we need to be faithful stewards, as best we can.

Care for Creation is like a breath of fresh air (bad pun intended) in this area.  It’s a book about environmental stewardship – from a Christian perspective.  The book is 32 pages long, and each two-page spread focuses on a different aspect of environmental stewardship: picking up trash, recycling, conserving water, etc.

One page of each spread is a full-color illustration.  These are lovely, “soft” illustrations.  (The cover is indicative of the interior illustrations.)  The other page of each spread contains a short bit of text explaining the issue, and the action we can take.  This is followed by a relevant Scripture verse.  The Scriptures are taken from a variety of translations (all clearly marked).  I thought one or two were a bit of a stretch but, for the most part, they’re very appropriate.  This is helpful for teaching our children why they should be responsible stewards of our natural resources.

I am very thankful to finally have such a resource available for teaching this important topic to my children!
