Christian Ethics and Moral Philosophy
Theology
“The relationship between theological ethics and philosophical ethics is complicated. Boyd and Thorsen have given us an accessible introduction to this difficult intellectual terrain, one that orients students to the key typologies and terms necessary to think as a Christian about the moral life today.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“If I had to choose one book to hand someone struggling to understand the power of addiction in their own life or in the life of a loved one, this would be it. Andy Partington's book combines the best scholarly insight on addiction with hard-won pastoral wisdom, and it's all narratively displayed in a series of gripping stories of addiction and recovery and the communities that make both possible. Clear, wise, compassionate, and completely engaging.”
Introducing Logic and Critical Thinking
Theology
“An ideal textbook for courses in critical thinking. Byerly covers the familiar range of techniques in deductive and inductive logic with clarity, rigor, and humor. But the unique feature of the book is its use of the intellectual virtue tradition to schematize what--beyond logical techniques--is required to be an excellent inquirer. 'Critical thinking' is a buzzword these days, but this book recovers the most venerable tradition of thinking about thinking--that of the intellectual virtues.”
Counseling, Grief & Mental Health
“Quentin Genuis’s book Recovering People is the one book I would most want to put into the hands of Christians seeking to respond faithfully to addictions in their own lives and the lives of those they love. Genuis admirably combines careful scholarship on addiction with a physician’s wisdom and bedside manner. This is a book full of empathy, insight, and hope.”
