Reviews

This volume is both theologically rich and ethically relevant for students of Christian ethics in the 21st century. By centering real-world moral problems rather than ethical theories, students will learn how to make sense of the contemporary world while centering the gospel. * Devan Stahl, Baylor University, USA * Grounding themselves in the work of trailblazing thinkers such as Arendt, Bonhoeffer, and Hauerwas, the Protestant moral theologians represented in this volume take up issues that are pressing in the contemporary Western context--including incarceration, ecological distress, AI, cancel culture, healthcare, vegetarianism and euthanasia. A serious and significant contribution! * Matthew Levering, University of Saint Mary of the Lake, USA *
