The objective of this paper is to reflect on an Indian Chris­ tian response to the ecological crisis that threatens to oblit­- erate life from the face of the earth. This paper, in the first part, briefly sketches the ecological crisis and the causes of this ecological crisis, and in the second part it reflects on the Christian religious resources and on the Indian religious experience for insights to respond to the ecological crisis. The final part of this paper offers three ecological impera­- tives to value and preserve creation that is threatened by human greed. The ecological imperatives - eco-conscious­ ness, eco-spirituality and the call to be stewards of creation - demand that we make concerted and urgent efforts in dif­- ferent spheres of life. Jesus, the incarnate Word and the Risen Lord, inspires us to follow his footprints to live in har­- mony with the human and cosmic community, because “all things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being.”
