197 p. : ill. ; 21 cm. In the whirlwind of environmental philosophies, what kind of stand should a Christian take? Abuse of the earth and its resources is a monumental problem. Some blame Christians, claiming that the Judeo-Christian worldview is domineering and exploitive toward the natural world. Others admit universal mismanagement. How can we be ecologically minded without falling into "earth worship"? Environmental ethics ranks as one of the most urgent issues facing our generation. While Creation Waits uncovers the historical progression of the ecological crisis from the very beginning. It explores the place of humankind and the earth, according to God's design. Looking beyond the immediate dilemmas of "saving the earth," the Larsens focus on the larger issues that will have lasting impact: our philosophy of lifestyle, sense of responsibility, and stewardship of resources. The Scriptures speak of a glorious future the redemption of creation-and we are called to be participants.
