    I can’t be bothered to look up the exact passage, but wasn’t part of Genesis God giving dominion over the animals and plants?

    That sounds like the opposite of “God will bail us out of our troubles”

      Yeah, I always understood stewardship as implying a need to care for the thing.

      If you can’t mess it up, you’re not really a steward, are you?
