THE CHARGE with Dennis Metzler

Christian Ethics: A Very Short Introduction with Dr. D. Stephen Long


Listen Later

We cover the relationship of theology to ethics and consider key Old Testament passages including the giving of the law and the tabernacle. Dr. Long looks at the life, death, and resurrection of Christ and explains how the beatitudes are a fulfillment of the call of Abraham. Christian liturgy is seen in relationship to ethics and Aquinas, Lutherans, Anglicans, and Anabaptists are considered as sources of ethical thought and practice. Long then covers ecclesiology and mission as well as modern and post-modern thinkers--all in view of ethics. We then look at particular ethical issues including sex, money, justice, capitalism, violence, non-violence, and pacifism.
