Abstract
The church as an organisation should be the light of the world. Being the light means that the church will be example for the world in the way to act as an organization, react and do things for others to follow. One area where the church needs to be the light is in the area of being stewards of the environment God has given to man. The earth is the Lord’s (Psalm 24:1) and other scriptural passage has been used severally in the church to pray in claiming blessings from God. It is high time that the same passage be used to motivate members of the church to keep, nurture and protect the environment from decay and destruction. The various curriculum materials of the church have emphasized the issue of stewardship, churches also observe stewardship week with so much emphasis on money and giving. However, the issue of environmental stewardship has not been given prominence. It is high time that churches gave attention to stewardship of the environment and also teach members how to be good stewards of the environment that God has given to them. Some of the ways by which the church can enhance environmental stewardship among members of the church are by creating awareness among church members, teaching environmental stewardship, inclusion of environmental stewardship in the church curriculum, mobilizing church members for environmental care etc. when the church takes the responsibility of keeping the environment in the front burner, members will also see the importance on their lives, health and the environment and live it for others to see and emulate.
