Dr. Jonathan Moo: Loving God, Neighbor, and the Natural World

How Can Christians Turn Groans into Growth By Responding to Ecological Grief? In this episode of the Good Faith Podcast, host Curtis Chang talks with Dr. Jonathan Moo, a decorated professor of both the New Testament and Environmental Studies, about why Christian creation care belongs at the center of discipleship. Drawing from Romans 8, Colossians 1, and Genesis 1–2, Moo connects biblical hope for new creation with practical action on climate change, stewardship, and loving our neighbors by caring for the places they depend on and enjoy. The conversation explores how faith and science can work together, why “dominion” looks like Christ-shaped service, and how small, local projects—from Uganda to Texas—offer tangible models of environmental renewal. Dr. Moo offers us a bigger vision of human flourishing, plus concrete next steps for Christians and churches to live joyfully and faithfully in God’s world. 05:04 - How Do Jonathan Moo’s Academic and Faith and Love for Creation Intersect? 07:51 - Romans 8 and Lament for Creation 17:38 - Salvation, Resurrection, and the Earth 22:08 - Practical Examples of Creation Care 27:01 - Motivating People To Move From Enjoying Nature To Actively Caring For It 31:24 - How Do We Address Interpretations of “Dominion”? 36:32 - Jesus as Model for Dominion 39:34 - Understanding Barriers Between Evangelicals and Science 47:16 - Engaging with Skeptics and Loved Ones 53:25 - Advice for Skeptics 55:11 - Practical Steps for the Environmentally Concerned Episode Companion: Christians and Climate Change Guide 2: https://goodfaith.org/wp-content/uplo...
