About This Quote

Our work in the world calls for many hands at the wheel. Planet earth is crying out in pain, and Christians have to pick up their crosses and follow Christ, his apostles and saints. These were all shining lights in a broken world that needed light. We need to take care of our planet, to help it heal, to restore it.

The Bible says God created the earth for us to take care of. It’s like saying, “I want you to take care of yourself—your body—so you can live your best life.” But what if your body can’t take care of itself? What if the damage is too great? What if there are people out there who are suffering who need help?
