Another item I was particularly impressed by was the timeline with all of the theologians and issues from Ten Commandments, Buddha, Confucius to our modern theologians like Christian Smith, everything that had to do with our developing a ethical conscious. I can't say it was an easy book, but what a perfect guide to ethical thinking. The chapters are Challenges of a relativist world, history of moral reasoning, enlightenment ethics, Evangelical ethics and using the Bible in Moral decision making.
Jan 23, Mark A Powell rated it liked it. What Mitchell presents here is more of an historical survey of ethics than modern-day application of ethics within a Christian worldview. While both the ancient and contemporary components are necessary, a book this brief could have benefitted from more balance.
When applied ethics are dealt with they are done well, but while Mitchell makes cogent arguments, they are sporadically nestled between the summaries of ethicists and moral frameworks of the past. A serviceable, if lacking, introduction. Sep 01, E rated it it was ok. One of the weaker entries in this series.
It's historical overview seems shallow and yet still manages to consume most of the book. The author's own ethical paradigm is hardly presented, let alone discussed in any depth.
His examples seem repetitive. All in all, a much better effort should have been demanded by the series editors.
