Summary

Twelve essays from leading Christian moral philosophers and theologians explore fundamental questions of moral philosophy. The collection focuses on several important and fundamental theoretical issues about which we believe there is legitimate disagreement among Christian ethicists. While answers range in philosophical character from "naturalist" to "supernaturalist", each essay argues that its answer should be especially attractive to Christians.
