Dr. Tom Mullikin Leads the SC Dept. of Natural Resources
The opening pages of Scripture tell a story that modern Christians know so well they may miss one of the most salient points. God created the Heavens and the earth. He called them “good.” And He placed humanity within that creation with an explicit charge. Before sin entered the world, before redemption became necessary, before the Church existed, God tasked humanity to “work the garden and to keep it.”
Those are the words of Dr. Tom Mullikin who adds that the Genesis Chapter 1 mandate to care for the earth has never been revoked.
Mullikin, who serves as the director of the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, earned his Ph.D. in Organizational Leadership at Columbia International University in 2021. Read his thoughts on environmental care and the Bible in his Op-ed contribution published in The Christian Post.
