This is an outstanding book, a comprehensive introduction to Christian ethics that makes its own statement about what it means to live a Christian life. It moves step by step from Biblical faith to the hard questions about contemporary life, showing us how to make the connections for ourselves. -- Robin W. Lovin, dean, Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University Strikes a perfect balance between theoretical depth and practical insight. Dr. Brady's work is an excellent introduction to Christian ethics for undergraduate students and adult learners. -- Michael J. Schuck, associate professor of Christian ethics, Loyola University of Chicago
Comprehensive in its approach yet written in plain language, "The Moral Bond of Community" offers a biblically-based concept of Christian justice that can be applied to moral questions in everyday life. Brady examines four forms of Christian moral discourse - narrative, prophetic, ethical, and policy - and shows how each contributes to a fuller understanding of Christian morality.
