Calvin, as he describes himself, is scary, isn’t he? For his cynical, consumeristic, resource-consuming child, he puts his finger on some of the fears that grip all of us at times.
But this isn’t the only world that is. Although Christians should care deeply about the earth, its resources, and its citizens, we are not to live as if this existence is all there is!
C.S. Lewis’ often-quoted statement helps us have a correct perspective:
“Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither.”
