Learn to discern the necessary from the dispensable, the intentional from the casual, the true from the false. For example, the symbols of the sun and moon adorn many an earlobe, and wearers can mean much or nothing by this. Unbelievers wearing these symbols may be merely fashion-conscious or else sincere promoters of false belief. Discern questionable expression of language and symbol. The Psalms, for example, declare the sun and moon to be God's handiwork.
Symbols can create opportunities for witness instead of resentment and fear.
Prayerfully plan a chapter meeting, concert of prayer, outreach seeker meeting, retreat or conference that centers on the biblical mandate of creation care. Learn some things about the history of creation care in the Christian church, both noble and infamous. Celebrate our redemption as creatures in the image of God by investing in and encouraging the inclusion of the arts and the broad application of all spiritual gifts in the functioning of the body of Christ and in the worship of God. Ask candidates for local, state and national offices about their strategies, plans for funding and intentions for creation care. Encourage your fellow students to join and influence campus environmental-political groups.
