It’s not my fault he’s written about everything.
I was trying to find a YouTube video, but it was escaping my search. Ch. 11 of the new book is titled “Waste as Revealer of Creatures Made ‘to Till and to Keep.’”

The best chapter. I use it when I teach the intro course in our seminary (this semester is the undergraduates).

I thought about that, and will certainly address it in the lecture, but wasn’t sure how to include it without making the definition too clunky.

Playing with a working definition of theology for an intro course tomorrow. Thoughts? What do you like? What am I missing?
“Theology is the prayerful study of the living God, revealed to us in Scripture, for our ongoing worship of God and love for the world.”

I think we need to say the latter in order to properly fight the issue. It’s easy to identify a few bad eggs. It’s harder to say that Mammon corrupts otherwise “good” people (n.b. I see this temptation even in myself).

It’s easy to say that our corporate overlords are evil and only concerned with profit, and I think there are those for whom it’s true. What’s harder to say is that the pull of profit maximization is so strong that even well-intentioned people end up bowing to its ends.
