1. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply

Genesis 1:28 (NET)

2. The Stewardship Triangle
Knowledge
Knowledge: What do we know? What do we yet need to know? What science is involved? Is our understanding sufficient?
Ethics: What is wrong? What is or would be right? What does good stewardship involve? What needs to happen to restore or preserve creation?
Practice: What do we do and how do we do it? What actions are required of us?
Practice
Ethics
