With chronic hunger affecting millions, the world today needs to completely rethink its relationship to both agriculture and the environment. In honor to our Lord we as Christians should be leading by example in responding appropriately to a creation that groans and to a world where growing numbers of people struggle to find enough food. The purpose of this book is to put God back into the center of agriculture. He is the First Gardener, the First Farmer, the First Forester. When we build agricultural systems modeled after the beauty and diversity we see in the Garden of Eden, we glorify God, we brighten our testimony for Christ, and we move substantially in a direction that brings blessing to our brothers and sisters who are chronically hungry. Where our agricultural landscapes have been degraded and rendered less productive, we as Christians must work to restore and rebuild the strength and fruitfulness of those landscapes. Where our farming systems have damaged or continue to damage other parts of cration, we must lead the way in eliminating or minimizing that damage. Our gardens and farms should bear tangible witness to the fact that we serve the God of all creation, and that we hold tightly to standards and principles that reflect a Biblical view of agriculture.

The world today needs to completely rethink its relationship to the environment, and nothing less than a complete transformation of perspective and behavior is required. For those who adhere to the Christian faith, such a transformation must begin at the foot of the cross. In honor to our Lord we should be leading the world by example in responding appropriately to a creation that groans. As the bible teaches, Christ is both the cornerstone of our faith and the Creator of all things, and therefore, He is the most appropriate starting point when we think about creation. Since Christ exhorted us to love God wholeheartedly and to love our neighbors as ourselves, we have a divine obligation to glorify the creator in our treatment of creation, and a profound responsibility to consider how such treatment will impact other people, both now and into the future. caring for creation, therefore finds its firm foundation in the person and work of Christ. This book is about the fact that a desire to honor Christ should be central to our perspective as we relate to creation. How we use and care for land, fish, forests and other resources all needs to flow from a determined commitment to the One who originally created the wonders of this world.
