| Toward a theology of sustainable agriculture | Hall, S. 2002.
PSCF 54(2):103-107. CELD ID 16746Abstract Sustainable agriculture provides for present food and fiber needs, gives fair compensation to those entrusted with caring for the land, encourages healthy communities, and can continue far into the future. Few Christians have yet tackled this daunting field. The benefits to Christians and other may be great. Christians must recognize the biblical imperative of good stewardship of God's creation, and the special issues of agriculture, so common in biblical themes. Secular companies, governments, and other institutions can gain from the wisdom and values of the Scriptures, still highly esteemed by many, and tied closely to our collective roots.
