Following Jesus involves the sometimes difficult and painful process of opening up—transforming from being turned inward in self-absorption to being turned outward in love and service. It doesn’t mean sacrificing to the detriment of ourselves, but it means putting ourselves with others—not thinking of ourselves as apart from, but connected with others and our whole world ..read more

Humanity’s “dominion” or “rule” over creation is not a right, entitling us to do whatever we wish with creation.
