Matrix of Christian Ethics, The : Integrating Philosophy and Moral Theology in a Postmodern Context
Overview: This book begins to delve into this relevant and contemporary subject through methodological reflection on the commands, purposes, values, and virtues of Christian life in today's context. To address these factors, an integrative approach to ethics is proposed, borrowing from classical ethical models such as a consequential ethics, principle ethics, virtue ethics, and value ethics. This is what the authors call a "matrix of Christian ethics." This "matrix" will be played out in a variety of ways throughout the book, from the discussion of the postmodern situation of ethics and values to current proposals for the ongoing development of Christian ethics today. It concludes with some practically oriented guidelines to help the reader consider contemporary ethical questions and conflicts within a framework of biblical wisdom, in view of the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of followers of Christ.
