According to author Scott B. Rae in Doing the Right Thing, our culture is in an ethical mess because we've neglected moral training and education. This book proposes that there is such a thing as moral truth, that it can be known, and that it can be put into practice. Looking specifically at the areas of medicine, the marketplace, public life, education, and the family, Rae shows how foundational ethical principles can guide you in making moral day-to-day decisions. Informed by Scripture and calling for a renewed understanding of the importance of the Christian faith in moral training, Doing the Right Thing issues a call for cultivated virtue that can bring about both better lives and a better society. You will find yourself examining the ways in which ethical and character issues relate to your life. As a result, you will be better equipped to promote virtue in your own spheres of influence and the culture at large. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Doing the Right Thing is intended to be a companion book to the film series by the same name produced by Chuck Colson. Containing six short chapters, the first, “We’re in an Ethical Mess!” is an attempt to answer the question, how did we get into this ethical mess? The second chapter “Is There a Moral Law We Can Know?” brings out the foundational ideas of the book. The third chapter “If We Know What’s Right, Can We Do It?” is an important question which needs an answer. The fourth chapter “What Does It Mean To Be Human?” takes a look at ethics in medicine and health. And the fifth and sixth chapters “Ethics in the Marketplace” and “Ethics in Public Life” deal with the subjects as their titles suggest.
A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon the world, says the French existentialist philosopher Albert Camus. From a Christian worldview, the motive for living a good life has more depth, to be worthy of the calling to which we have been called, to be worthy of God, and to be worthy of the ultimate sacrifice that Christ made on the cross.
