Planned Books:
FuturePlans 2007 or 2008 |
Book: Paths to Righteousness: Moral Clarity in a World of Moral
Alternatives |
The book will contrast a healthy morality that grows out of love, grace,
and forgiveness and manifests itself in human care to a morality that
manifests itself in rabid rebelliousness or rigid conformity and exclusivity.
I will explore biblical, theological, and sociological understandings of the
narrow path and then the broader and more distorted views of morality. It
will then contrast how these two approaches work themselves out in
professional practice, moral leadership, and organizational and institutional
ethics. My goal is to publish a few more articles and then rework 5-7 of them
into book chapters. |
