Reuschling, an evangelical Christian ethicist teaching at Ashland Theological Seminary, writes an introductory textbook for Christian ethics. She introduces and overviews three main classic, philosophical schools of ethics ( virtue ethics, deontology, teleology). She explores how these schools are significant for Christian ethics, but also their limitations from a theological perspective.
Reuschling focuses on how evangelicals wittingly or unwittingly fall into one or another of the classic modes without adequate biblical and theological reflection.
Her book will be useful in college and seminary courses on ethics. It will appeal especially to evangelicals, but mainliners will be interested too.
