Exploring Christian Ethics - An Introduction to Key Methods and Debates

Studying Christian ethics tends to involve talking about what we should or, more often, shouldn't do. The aim of this book, however, is to explore Christian ethics within a wider, more positive framework - one that encourages a joyful way of living that flows naturally out of the abundant goodness of God's life and character, as revealed in Christ.
