Sustainability has emerged as a pressing global concern in the 21st century, particularly as ecological crises, climate change, and resource depletion intensify. This paper proposes a theology of sustainability that integrates peace, justice, and environmental stewardship as interdependent dimensions of God’s creation mandate. Drawing on biblical perspectives, particularly the prophetic and wisdom traditions, the paper highlights how justice and peace are foundational to ecological well-being. The study adopts a qualitative theological approach, engaging biblical texts, eco-theological scholarship, and contextual analysis of Nigeria, especially Jos Plateau, where resource exploitation has led to degradation and conflict. Findings reveal that theological frameworks emphasizing shalom, stewardship, and justice can inspire faith-based responses to environmental challenges. The paper concludes with recommendations for integrating sustainability into church practice, education, and policy advocacy.
