Brandon Scott offers an insightful and unique account of the history and question of abortion. Scott's analyses of history and the sources indicate that contemporary Roman Catholic and Protestant Evangelical positions on abortion are out of step with tradition and surprisingly even more conservative than the church of the Middle Ages. Scott also reviews traditional Jewish and Islamic positions on the practice of abortion. This is a rare book in that while many books review the ethical and moral aspects of abortion, and many regard the history, few books focus on the religious history of ...

About This Book Jeremiah is a marriage story. Not a metaphor to be shelved, but a covenant that explains every page: idolatry as adultery, injustice as adultery’s public form, and a faithful Husband—Yah—who judges to save and loves to restore.

This reading pairs careful ...

Ahead of the pivotal 2020 elections, momentum is building across America to revisit the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that struck down laws protecting unborn children and their mothers nationwide. Life is Winning: Inside the Fight for Unborn Children and Their Mothers tells the story of how the pro-life cause went from an orphaned political “problem” to a winning issue embraced at the highest levels of the Republican Party, thanks to a small-but-ambitious group of pro-life women.

Steinle offers a clear, compassionate, and deeply grounded exploration of what Scripture actually says about human sexuality. With pastoral sensitivity and historical insight, this essay addresses some of the most pressing questions facing Christians today: Why did God create humanity male and female?

“No creo que la ley espiritual funcione en un territorio aparte. Por el contrario, se expresa solamente a través de las actividades ordinarias de la vida. Por lo tanto, afecta a los terrenos económico, social y político” (Mahatma Gandhi) “A la santidad se llega por los caminos terrestres, y llegué a esta convicción personal: la acción buena es el acto espiritual más profundo que el hombre puede hacer; desde ese día, la acción ha dominado toda mi vida” (Vicente Ferrer)

In a world where past pain often feels like a permanent weight, Her Sister’s Choices, Her Tent, invites women on a transformative journey inspired by the powerful truths of Ezekiel 23. Through the lens of this challenging yet redemptive scripture, this women's Bible study reveals how God can take the broken pieces of our lives—marked by hurt, abuse, shame, and guilt—and rebuild them into a sanctuary for His presence.

A protocol is a formally or informally set of agreed upon steps about what is to be done and how is to be done in a given situation. They serve several functions. In medicine they establish standard procedures in the light of decades or even centuries of experience. In political meetings and discussions they establish parity between the two sides. In dangerous situations protocols keep people safe. People who advocate Moral Relativism directly and indirectly attack social and moral protocols because the protocols generally tend to preserve morality, whereas moral relativism can reign only ...

This pamphlet evaluates Starbucks' corporate responsibility forays given the alternative need to fix managerial flaws down to the store level.

Ethically Incognito is a short, sharp little book about why sometimes the most honest way to speak is without showing your face. It’s the opening reflection in the Elijah’s Rocks series—a collection of straight-from-the-pulpit (and sometimes straight-from-the-notebook) messages about misused scripture, overlooked verses, and how we’ve let ego creep into conversations that were supposed to be about the Word. This one isn’t about a particular verse. It’s about why the author doesn’t sign his name. Written from within ministry—but not just for Christians—Ethically Incognito ...

Too many parents, pastors, and people focus on what they value but often neglect to express why it is critical or essential. The fundamentals of the apostles’ doctrine are eternally essential. They are not creeds of words of mere man; they are God’s absolute Word. Because we belong to Jesus, we should want to please Him and obey His Word.

The 2013 Report of the House of Bishops Working Group on Human Sexuality (the Pilling Report) declared that ‘In the face of conflicting scholarship, as well as conflicting beliefs, we believe that the Church should be cautious about attempting to pronounce definitively on the implications of Scripture for homosexual people.’ However, the report never undertook an analysis of the conflicting scholarship to which it refers. This report, produced on behalf of the Church of England Evangelical Council, undertakes such an analysis. It provides a detailed survey of studies on the Bible and ...

Calls on Christians within Renewal traditions to examine the relationship between personal and social holiness and encourages pastors and leaders to draw on our biblical heritage and appreciation for the authority of Scripture, the witness of Spirit-filled forefathers and mothers, and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit to engage the critical issues of injustice facing the contemporary church and society.

Jonathan Sacks was an outstanding moral authority of our time and bestselling author of The Dignity of Difference. One of Judaism’s most distinctive and challenging ideas is its ethics of responsibility. We have been given the gift of freedom and we in turn have to honour and enhance the freedom of others. More than in any previous generation, we have been tempted to imagine that it is the individual’s needs which are the sole source of meaning.

Max Weber stellt sich in diesem Werk die zentrale Frage, was die abendländische Moderne so besonders macht und den ihr spezifischen wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung im 16. und 17. Jahrhundert voran trieb. Dabei analysiert er die Ursprünge und Voraussetzungen des Kapitalismus und entdeckt eine bestimmte protestantische Ethik, die zu dieser Zeit in Mitteleuropa und Amerika vorherrschte. Im Zuge seiner Analyse untersucht er die Ausbreitung des Protestantismus und wie diese den Kapitalismus begünstige. Die protestantischen Puritaner seien dabei zunächst religiös motiviert gewesen.
