144. Is Hunting Immoral?

Hunting season is upon us, but should Christians participate? Is it immoral to kill an animal, especially if it's not a threat to you? Are we dishonoring God by killing his creation?

In today’s episode, Pastor Jackie and Pastor Derek talk through the morality of hunting as well as biblical examples of killing animals for food. We discuss immoral ways to hunt and look at why those should be avoided, then seek to give a clear guide as to how the Bible portrays hunting. Our hope is that as you listen, you would have a clearer understanding of the biblical side of hunting and an informed take on what God has to say about stewarding this earth.
