Caring for Creation

What does it mean to truly care for creation? In this reflection, Archbishop Antje Jackelen of the Church of Sweden explores both the theological foundation and practical urgency behind caring for God’s creation — our planet. She examines why environmental stewardship isn’t a peripheral concern for people of faith, but a core spiritual responsibility rooted in humanity’s relationship with the divine and the natural world. Archbishop Jackelen’s perspective offers a compelling call to action, framing care for the Earth as inseparable from faithful living. Her reflections add an important voice from Swedish Christian leadership to the broader interfaith conversation on ecological responsibility. For those interested in hearing additional perspectives on faith and environmental justice, a related video features Kesem Bengiat of Kids Ecotheology, who shares her passion for environmental justice and her thoughts on the gas rigs off the Israeli coast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkya_E2bgk0
