Russell Moore on the Environment and our call to Genesis 2 style eco-butlering

Russ Moore, in true Framian fashion, has a great piece here on why we MUST care about what God has made, and stewardship MUST inform our theology/practice of dominion.

Moore makes a great point: the church can shine as we show the world that we are not defunct Platonists, insisting that body/earth is bad and all eyes should be placed on the world to come.

This IS the world to come. It is not yet made new, recreated, or resurrected, but it is this earth and these bodies that we are called to take seriously NOW for the sake of God's kingdom.
