This course involves careful reflection about the connection between Christian beliefs and practices, including the formation of our moral vision and the role of authority in moral decision-making. Special attention is given to the way the Bible is used as a source of moral authority. The course presumes that Christian ethics as an academic discipline is in service of those who seek to live a life of Christian discipleship. To that end, the course invites students to engage in serious, critical reflection about the meaning and practice of discipleship in the context of a variety of contemporary moral challenges.
