Evangelical Creation Care Expert Shares Lessons Learned from Global Tour

Around the world, Christians look to scriptural lessons on stewardship to depoliticize environmental issues.

Concluding earlier this month in Jordan for the Middle East and North Africa, Brown and his colleagues addressed local issues for a region experts warn is warming at twice the rate of the rest of the world.

Brown served previously as chief operating officer for the evangelical Au Sable Institute of Environmental Studies, and today is a fellow at the Nelson Institute of Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
