The Evangelical Environmental Network's purpose is to "declare the Lordship of Christ over all creation" (Col. 1:15-20). The Evangelical Environmental Network was formed because it recognizes that "many environmental problems are fundamentally spiritual problems". EEN's flagship publication, Creation Care magazine, provides articles on topics ranging from how to protect your loved ones from environmental threats, "to how you can more fully praise the Creator for the wonder of His creation" (http://www.creationcare.org/).


"The Evangelical Environmental Network is a fellowship of believers who:

  • Declare the Lordship of Christ over all creation. He is the firstborn over all creation. For by him all things were created. All things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. (Colossians 1:15b; 16a, c; 17)
  • Deepen their walk with the Lord and the life of their churches through joy-filled worship, Bible study on the topics of creation's care, and prayer that God's will "be done on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:10).
  • Show the compassion of Christ for people who suffer from creation's destruction (Proverbs 14:31).
  • Demolish strongholds of sin that tarnish the glory and integrity of God's good creation (2 Corinthians 10:4-5).
  • Build our Lord's kingdom by active service to restore and renew the works of his hands (Matthew 6:33; Ephesians 2:10).
  • Share the Gospel with those who do not know that Jesus Christ is the ultimate Hope for creation groaning under our sin and the only Hope for our own souls (Romans 8:19-21; Colossians 1:20, 27)." [1]
