In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve. He gave them His image. He gave them each other. He gave them a garden. And He gave them a task: “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion.” What does it mean to “have dominion”? The word means to rule. To take charge. To control. To exercise power. That sounds scary. We know what “power” does in the wrong hands. But before sin marred the image of God in us, we were entrusted as God’s stewards. His caretakers over earth. We were given authority and responsibility. You know how that ended. The world has been under poor management since Genesis 3. But God never rescinded that charge to us. We are still to exercise dominion. How can we—and more importantly, how should we—go about that.
