It was a sign of wholesome Christianity for Rev. Cheol Soon Park to pray for Canada’s oil industry. He recognizes how important oil is to the well-being of all of our people.
Without sufficient energy, our environment will become a disaster as it is in parts of Africa where energy is in short supply. For fuel, people burn every tree that grows as well as the animal dung that might fertilize the soil.
Park also recognizes that we have to make the system work for all of our people. Too often, people claiming to be environmentalists forget about people in their narrow approach to saving the planet. As God’s people, we are just as much a part of the environment as every other living thing.
Like Park, we need to be concerned about people and the environment.
