Why are we recommending an ethics book?
What has it to do with mission?
Well many people are looking for answers about life, how to live???
Many ethics books simply tell us what to do!!!
This book written by the Lutheran pastor and academic Dr Mark Worthing, focusses not so much on the issues but rather helps us explore and understand the framework and foundation for making decisions as Christians.
It is an easy to read book, ideal for small groups, people wanting to explore decision making as a Christian and desiring to find a gracious God in the midst of difficult decisions.
