Publisher's Note
In Caring for Creation, Calvin DeWitt helps evangelical Christians develop a biblically faithful, Christ-centered response to environmental issues. Dr. DeWitt sets his call for stewardship against the backdrop of species extinction and six other key issues. In contrast to a "religion" of the self, the Bible calls us to serve and care for creation on behalf of its Creator. DeWitt grounds our stewardship in three fundamental questions: Is Jesus Christ Lord of creation? Is creation a lost cause? Whom do we follow when we follow Jesus Christ? This book reminds readers that the world God loved and sent his Son to redeem includes creation, so our attitude should become like his, that of a servant. Presented in the Kuyper Lecture series, Caring for Creation includes responses from Richard A. Baer Jr., professor of environmental ethics, Cornell University; Thomas Sieger Derr, professor of religion, Smith College; and Congressman Vernon J. Ehlers (R-Mich.), vice-chair of the House Science Committee.

Industry Reviews
"[DeWitt] has a way of taking students into the most ordinary landscapes and showing them a creation they haven't seen. He is good at explaining complex features of the terrain and its living creatures, and he conveys a sense of wondering joy as he does it. DeWitt sees the world as a scientist and as a Christian, and he puts remarkably little space between those two. He is committed to preserving nature, but it isn't humanity against nature for him. Rather, he sees nature serving humanity by offering testimony to the glory of God."
Christianity Today - Tim Stafford
