Joshua told the people, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you."
-- Joshua 3:5
Gotta tell ya, I read tons of stuff about Christians looking for transformational change in our attitudes toward Creation. Most seem to be attacking these problems in their own, albeit collective, strength.
The simple truth in this passage from Joshua is this: The walls don't come down in the world - political and regulatory issues, public attitudes, pollution problems, ending deforestation - until the walls between each of us and our Savior come down. Once that happens God will do amazing things among us almost immediately.
Really want to change the world, brother? Start by hitting your knees.
