Making Ethical Decisions

Each day individuals make choices that have moral implications. Whether the choices concern major or minor issues, they involve questions that often confuse Christians. This practical book helps establish a basis for ethical decision making by providing principles and showing how those principles can be applied.

Louis B. Weeks is Professor of Historical Theology and Dean, Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary
