| Summary: | Stanley Hauerwas and Samuel Wells have conceived a companion to Christian ethics that should inspire theological educators, especially those who are helping the Church to reflect on its practices, discerning within Christian worship signs of God's guidance for a robustly virtuous life. With lively contributors making both bold and modest claims about the centrality of liturgy, the volume is refreshing in a field of ethics that too often manages to bore students. With Hauerwas & co. theological ethics is bound not to be boring, and in this collection of essays we see a sketch of what might be a genuine paradigm shift in the field. |
