Compelling Ethics : Thinking For A Modern World
Compelling Thinking for Our Modern World offers Christians a clear, accessible guide to navigating today's most pressing moral challenges through a distinctly biblical lens. Authors Dan Trippie and Stephen Johnson ground their exploration in a foundational that objective reality, human dignity, and moral wisdom flow from God's nature and His creative design.
The book begins by establishing that truth, goodness, and beauty are not subjective preferences but objective realities rooted in God Himself. From this foundation, the authors examine five critical areas where Christians need clarity and virtue, human life, work, sexuality, and politics.
Each chapter addresses vital What makes human life sacred from conception to natural death? How does understanding work as a pre-fall creation ordinance transform our daily labor into worship? Why does God's design for sexuality within marriage between a man and woman promote genuine human flourishing? How can Christians engage politics faithfully without falling into triumphalism or despair?
The authors write with pastoral wisdom, weaving personal stories with theological depth and practical application. They consistently demonstrate that Christian ethics isn't about arbitrary rules but about aligning every aspect of life with God's good design for creation. Their approach is neither defensive nor apologetic, but confidently presents the beauty of God's vision for humanity.
What sets this book apart is its commitment to helping readers "think Christian"—developing a biblical framework for moral reasoning that applies to both current controversies and future challenges. The authors acknowledge that Scripture doesn't address every specific modern issue, but they show how biblical principles provide timeless wisdom for navigating an ever-changing world.
Enhanced by endorsements from respected pastors and theologians, including a foreword by Dr. Mark Liederbach, this concise volume equips believers to live faithfully in a culture increasingly detached from biblical truth. It's essential reading for pastors, church leaders, and any Christian seeking to understand God's design for human flourishing while engaging compassionately with a confused and hurting world.
Whether facing bioethical dilemmas, workplace decisions, or cultural debates, readers will find here the clarity, conviction, and compelling vision needed to honor Christ in every dimension of life.
