Résumé : | Asian Christian Ethics provides an introduction for students to a range of key topics related to Christian ethics in Asia. Fifteen Christian scholars from across Asia and from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds demonstrate how to think theologically and contextually about key ethical issues, as well as describe best practices in Christian moral formation. Ideal for use as a companion textbook in Asian seminaries and institutions as well as the wider Asian diaspora, readers will be introduced to a wide range of topics all while upholding the authority of the Bible, the centrality of Christ, and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. |
