Christian Environmental Stewardship and Its Critics

Many Americans are skeptical about climate change.  Is it real?  Are human beings the cause?  Is the crisis as imminent and severe as some suggest?  Is there anything reasonable that can be done about it?  Given the hyper-politicization of climate change today such skepticism is perhaps to be expected. But it can also stand in the way of the Christian duty of stewardship—  “to serve the Garden in which we have been placed.”  How should Christians navigate these tensions? How, especially, when the very concept of “Christian stewardship” has come under criticism from within and without the Christian church?

On March 16th , 2022  Baylor in Washington was pleased  to host a panel discussion about the theological and scientific motivations for environmental stewardship.
