“Our God is not a God who discards what he has made, who is defeated by sin and evil. Our God is a redeeming God, a God who is determined to reclaim his fallen world, setting it free from its enslavement to corruption and bringing it to a final state of glory.”
― Douglas J. Moo, Creation Care: A Biblical Theology of the Natural World

“Our human vocation is to work and take care of the place where God has planted us, to serve him in our rule in creation as priests in his temple. Caring for the earth is not, in this light, a peripheral biblical theme; it is central to our identity as God’s image bearers.”
― Douglas J. Moo, Creation Care: A Biblical Theology of the Natural World

“Our mission is in the context of the kingdom of God, inaugurated by Jesus Christ yet still only here in part. Our missiological task is to be agents of God’s kingdom rule—transforming not just individuals but society and also seeking the renewal and healing of creation, praying and working for God’s kingdom on earth as in heaven.”
― Colin Bell, Creation Care and the Gospel: Reconsidering the Mission of the Church

“A missional church is one where the whole membership is involved in some aspect of mission, so that mission is not a function of the church but its essential nature.”
― Colin Bell, Creation Care and the Gospel: Reconsidering the Mission of the Church
