Ethics in Business
ISBN: 9780800629083 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Noted ethicist James Childs shows how businesspeople can bring their religious convictions to bear on business life and economics without being overbearing, provincial, or dogmatic. Tackling such nettling topics as competition, regulation, environment, risk, truth-telling, whistle-blowing, leadership, discrimination, affirmative action, and conflict resolution, Childs is neither preachy nor simplistic. This is the book that will at last help businesspeople to push "beyond conventional morality" and infuse character into corporate culture.

Faithful Conversation
ISBN: 9780800635800 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Bitter battles over the churches' stance toward its gay and lesbian members have tested the churches' fundamental orientation and even threatened to split whole denominations apart. The blessing of homosexual unions and ordination of gays and lesbians have proven to be special flashpoints at both local and national levels. Part of the widespread perplexity over the issues stems from their complexity. They involve questions not only of personal ethics and church polity but also of Christian history, conflicting readings of the biblical data, and uncertainty over basic anthropological...

Preaching Justice
ISBN: 9781563383137 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The principal concern of this book is not complex theoretical discussions of justice so common to the discipline of ethics, but how working for justice fits into the church s mission and especially into its preaching. An opening chapter sets forth a biblical and theological basis for the conviction that justice is at the heart of the church s mission and witness. Then follows a chapter on preaching that distinguishes between merely moralizing about justice and genuinely preaching it. The remaining chapters in the book speak of preaching justice in dialogue with current contextual realities...

Ethics in the Community of Promise: Faith, Formation, and Decision, Second Edition
ISBN: 9780800637972 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this excellent and accessible introduction, now in a second edition, Childs helpfully articulates the shared features of Christian faith and shows how that communal commitment forms our values, character, virtues, and "eagerness to do what is right."

Childs applies it to a host of tough, real-life dilemmas such as affirmative action, end-of-life decisions, medical ethics, truth telling, environmental justice, and war-making. Previously published by Fortress Press in 1992 as Faith, Formation,...

Greed
ISBN: 9780800632304 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 164 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. We live in an age of greed. Economic good times and the self-immolation of socialist alternatives have left capitalism unrivaled in popular minds as a way of life-a prized set of values and expectations. However, capitalism is not without its downside or its victims. Basic human services-and even religion-have become commodities. Corporations reorganize for short-term gain at the expense of employees-and of their own long-term viability. Increasingly, people see themselves not as citizens but as consumers. First World countries, 15 percent of the globe, account for 86 percent of private...

The Eloquence of Grace
ISBN: 9781498214421 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: Joseph A. Sittler (1904-1987) was one of the most influential theologians of the twentieth century, distinguished for his pioneering work in ecology and for his preeminence as a preacher. He gave both the Beecher Lectures at Yale and the Noble Lectures at Harvard. As the "preacher's theologian," Sittler approached the interpretation of Scripture with a clear understanding of current critical scholarship, but also in the freedom of the gospel at the center of Scripture and with the humility of a theologian of the cross. In following the trajectory of the text into the preaching...

The Sermon on the Mount
ISBN: 9781608995752 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Sermon on the Mount is often considered a model for the moral and religious conduct of man. Such an interpretation defrauds the Sermon of its real meaning, according to Eduard Thurneysen, and results in a futile legalistic attempt to fulfill the Sermon's commands. Dr. Thurneysen insists that the Sermon on the Mount must be understood in terms of gospel and nothing but gospel. It is to be read with eyes directed only to Jesus and not to the problems of life as such. Then the problems will be set in true perspective, too. He further asserts that the Sermon is gospel in the form of law. Each...

The Black Urban Atlantic in the Age of the Slave Trade
ISBN: 9780812223767 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the era of the Atlantic slave trade, vibrant port cities became home to thousands of Africans in transit. Free and enslaved blacks alike crafted the necessary materials to support transoceanic commerce and labored as stevedores, carters, sex workers, and boarding-house keepers. Even though Africans continued to be exchanged as chattel, urban frontiers allowed a number of enslaved blacks to negotiate the right to hire out their own time, often greatly enhancing their autonomy within the Atlantic commercial system. In The Black Urban Atlantic in the Age of the Slave... During the era of the Atlantic slave trade, vibrant port cities became home to thousands of Africans in transit.
