Synopsis

Eschewing a sectarian approach which dismisses other understandings of the moral life, Robin Lovin nonetheless lays claim to a specifically Christian understanding of ethics by beginning with basic Christian convictions about the reality of God and human redemption, and weaving these convictions into the fabric of moral concerns that are widely shared in contemporary society.
