Creation and Christian Ethics

"Clear, cogent, and impressively comprehensive"Dennis Hollinger surveys the creation story and creation themes throughout Scripture as a foundation for Christian ethics, demonstrating how these themes offer guidance for a host of contested ethical issues today. "Hollinger makes a clear connection between doctrine and ethics, and his depth of study and insight will help Christians walk with conviction, wisdom, humility, and generosity."--Vincent Bacote, Center for Applied Christian Ethics, Wheaton College"A book that is full of wisdom. I learned much from it, and I plan to return to it frequently to learn even more."--Richard J. Mouw, Fuller Theological Seminary (emeritus)"Hollinger's fundamental instinct--which he consistently and ably applies throughout the book and across various subjects--is to make sure our ethics begin with the goodness of creation. I'm glad to see him push us toward the goodness and the faithful trajectory of God's creation in the way he does."--Kelly M. Kapic, Covenant College"Timely and comprehensive, this book is an essential read for discerning faithful witness and ethical practice in our day."--Autumn Alcott Ridenour, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"This much-needed book is clear, cogent, and impressively comprehensive. An outstanding work of contemporary moral reflection."--Jeffrey P. Greenman, Regent College"A masterful examination of creation and its implications for contemporary Christian ethics."--Michael J. Sleasman, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School"A first-rate work in the area of Christian ethics. The evangelical tradition has not always given the doctrine of creation sufficient weight--Hollinger corrects that neglect well in this important work."--Scott B. Rae, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
