Taking Dominion

The Christian account of the world’s creation is utterly unlike any of the other creation narratives in other cultures, and one of the key differences is that God creates mankind in his own image. As such, we are called to take up and carry on the work he has begun, both to steward and to order what the Lord has created. As such, we should give great care to the way we govern and order not only our spiritual lives and works, but also the physical, earthly tasks given to us in our families, homes, and communities.
