How should Christians approach the environment when we know that someday God will usher in a new heaven and a new earth? Does the way we approach stewardship extend to our planet? Does the Bible speak into this? Dr. Sandra L. Richter, author of Stewards of Eden: What Scripture Says About the Environment and Why it Matters, sits down with Rebecca Carrell and Liz Rodriguez to sort through the myths and the methods of Biblical Environmentalism.
Richter is a graduate of Valley Forge University, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, and earned her doctorate from the Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations Department of Harvard University in Hebrew Bible. A veteran of many years of leading student groups in archaeological excavation and historical geography classes in Israel, she has taught at Asbury Theological Seminary., Wesley Biblical Seminary and Wheaton College. She is recognized among the laity for her The Epic of Eden: A Christian Entry into the Old Testament and is currently working on a second in that series The Fifth Gospel: A Christian Entry into the Book of Isaiah (IVP Academic). Her current research involves a forthcoming book on environmental theology (IVP) and a commentary on Deuteronomy with Eerdmans. She is also the author of several adult Bible Curriculums with Seedbed. Richter is a sought-after speaker in both academic and lay settings.
