Environmentalism and Faith
In the Asheville Citizen-Times Leslie Boyd reports on a growing movement of evangelical Christians who are becoming active environmentalists.
“It doesn’t matter whether you believe in creation or evolution, caring for the Earth is something we agree is right,” says the Rev. Austin Rios of Grace Episcopal Church in Asheville. “Together, we are a strong force, and when we do all put our effort behind it, we will make a difference.”
Rios says the Creation Care movement is one of the few things that reach across lines of division, according to Boyd.
