A conversation with Wendell Berry

John Houghton: Looking after creation

There is an interesting interview with John Houghton in this month's Christianity Today: 'Looking after creation'.

Ecological blindspots

John Jefferson Davis, author of Evangelical Ethics (P 1993, 2nd edn), has an article - available online - in JETS: 'Ecological "blind spots" in the structure and content of recent evangelical systematic theologies'.

The purpose of this paper is to argue that certain “blind spots” in the structure and content of recent evangelical systematic theologies have contributed to the neglect of environmental issues and environmental stewardship in certain segments of the evangelical subculture. More specically, it will be argued that de˜ciencies in the doctrines of creation and the atonement in evangelical systematic theology textbooks have contributed to this problem.

Environmental ethics bibliography

There is a useful and technical directory to bibliographies in environemental ethics here. It is complied by Timothy C. Weiskel - it was last upated in 1998.

More recent 92005) is the International society for Environemental Ethics Bibliography.

The Evangelical ecologist

The Evangelical Ecologist is a blog worth checking out: "A Christian ecoblog - 'cause the world isn't ours to mess up Psalm 24:1."

Why the blog? I started it because I think there's a need for a conservative evanglical voice in the environmental movement today. Clearly, though, I'm not the evangelical ecologist. All of us who desire to care for God's creation while spreading the Good News of salvation through Jesus Christ are evangelical ecologists. And this site is here to help.
