Faith Ethics: the Future of Christianity in North America Harold Schlachtenhaufen

This book talks about the many moral standards and ethical principles and beliefs within our society and churches today. It gives a current assessment of ethics within Christianity and gives answers to difficult and sometimes confusing moral choices. - Is our culture and civilization in moral decline? Whose fault is it? What can you do to change it? What is the future of morality in the diverse world today? Can politics and the economy be fair to all? - Is it really good if a morally confused village raises our children? What can you do to keep your family, church, and society under the guidance of a good moral compass?- Why is there so much disagreement within churches and cultures today about what is right and wrong, good and evil, and what promotes the common good rather than the privileged few? - This introduction to Christian ethics will clarify why and how people arrive at differing ethical positions, and how to dialogue with others of all races, classes, and cultures from a position of understanding and mutual respect.
