Product Description
Book Description
* Do we truly acknowledge the biblical God, who is Creator and Sustainer as
well as Redeemer - a much bigger God than the one who cares merely about me
and my personal faith and behaviour?
* Do we really love our neighbours - the powerless one in a less developed
country as well as our friend next door?
* And what about our own family: are we stealing from our children and
their children - damaging the only world we have through global climate
change, never mind polluting our neighbours' environment, using up
non-renewable resources like fossil fuel, indulging in industrial and
agricultural practices that permanently harm land and water?
* We want to `make poverty history' - but are we squandering so much
capital that we are making this impossible?
This book offers a Christian approach to living now in the expectation that
tomorrow will come - a Christian framework for sustainable development,
written by some of the world's experts on the subject. It is a guidebook
for living in such a way that we will be better able to give a positive
account for our treatment of the talents entrusted to us, when we face the
divine Judge of all the earth.
