- Synopsis
- The following quotation is taken from the back cover of the book: "The vexing complexities of our modern world often generate cynicism or even despair in the face of moral decision making. Choosing the Good proposes a framework for doing ethics with confident humility, despite the cultural context undermining such endeavors." This book accomplishes two goals in that it provides a survey of essential issues salient for reflection on the moral life and Christian ethics and argues for a particular approach to doing ethics. Dennis Hollinger provides a survey of perspectives, suggesting that an effective Christian ethic must have its basis in a Christian worldview. He examines the complexities of our pluralistic and postmodern society, reflects on factors that influence Christian ethical decisions, and surveys the questions of justice, pluralism, and Christian influence in the secular world." The author provides extensive documentation for the material presented in the book.
