Show Notes

Our world is groaning under the weight of environmental crisis—pollution, deforestation, climate change, and the destruction of ecosystems. As followers of Jesus, we must ask: Does God care about how we treat the environment? In this episode of 10:10 Thrive, we turn to the Scriptures and the life of Jesus to see how creation care is not a side issue but a core part of discipleship.

 

Jesus often taught with the language of creation—sparrows, lilies, seeds, storms—reminding us that the natural world is both a gift from God and a revelation of His kingdom. The Bible is clear that the earth belongs to the Lord, and that we are entrusted as stewards. Caring for creation is therefore not only about science or politics; it is about worship, justice, and love of neighbor, since environmental harm most often falls hardest on the poor.

 

In our “Get Deep” section, we’ll discover what this teaches us about Jesus Himself: His authority as Lord of creation, His compassion for even the smallest creatures, His mission to reconcile all things, His justice for the vulnerable, and His promise of renewal. Finally, we’ll reflect on practical ways we can live as faithful stewards—honoring God’s creation, loving our neighbors, and bearing witness to the day when Christ will make all things new.
