Course Description:
Earth Science is the study of the Earth and its
place in the universe. It is also the study of God's creation.
We can come to know God more fully through His creation, and as
stewards of His creation we have a responsibility to care for
it.
The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Psalm
19:1
God blessed them and said to them, "Be
fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.
Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over
every living creature that moves on the ground."
Genesis 1: 28
