Will We Get Moral Leadership on Climate?

Last updated on: February 13, 2013 at 4:16 pm By Alexei Laushkin

by the Rev. Mitch Hescox Yesterday, the President issued a challenge on climate change during Tuesday’s State of the Union Address. Now, the good news is, we can make meaningful progress on this issue [climate change]while driving strong economic growth. I urge this Congress to get together, pursue a bipartisan, market-based solution to climate change, like the one John McCain and Joe Lieberman worked on together a few years ago. But if Congress won’t act soon to protect future generations, I will. I... Read more

Isn’t Environmental Concern Based on Pantheistic Thinking?

Last updated on: February 12, 2013 at 4:56 pm By Alexei Laushkin

by Dean Ohlman Because the earth is an object of worship for many of those given to New Age beliefs and other modern forms of pantheism, it’s logical for them to demonstrate devoted concern for the earth. That’s all they feel they have that is worthy of their reverence. Many of these individuals have followed the natural path of paganism illustrated by the apostle Paul: “They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things... Read more

Living Off the Land or Living With the Land?

Last updated on: February 11, 2013 at 1:40 pm By Alexei Laushkin

by Tri Robinson A few days ago a low flying government airplane slowly circled around Timber Butte and through our surrounding foothills. I thought it was conducting the annual winter elk count but later discovered that it was hunting for a small pack of wolves that had killed two young cows on a neighboring ranch. Everyone in the area was on the alert keeping a watch out for their own stock. A little more fuel was added to the ongoing debate concerning... Read more

Isn’t “earthkeeping” just another expression for environmentalism?

Last updated on: February 6, 2013 at 2:28 pm By Alexei Laushkin

by Dean Ohlman When a philosophy becomes dominant in an individual’s life, it virtually becomes a religion. When it does, we often add the suffix “ism” to the main word defining what it is that people have given themselves over to. Many people are so given over to socialism, capitalism, scientism, creationism, conservatism, liberalism or any one of dozens of other “isms” that these become virtual worship systems for them. Because these philosophies and/or belief systems come to rule an... Read more

The Jesus Who Came To Serve

Last updated on: February 4, 2013 at 11:16 am By Alexei Laushkin

by Jim Ball But I am among you as one who serves. Those were not empty words. And Jesus does not let us get away with projecting a false Christian servant-leader model. Jesus doesn’t let us fool ourselves with lame rationalizations by in effect saying in our own minds, “I can be a servant leader in my heart and at the same time continue to lord it over those within my power and influence.” His teaching and example are very concrete....
