Book Review
Introducing Christian Ethics
The book that I have chosen to do my book review on is Introducing Christian Ethics, written by Henlee H. Barnette. This book deals with many Christian ethical decisions based on biblical foundations that are applied to various major problems. Some of the major problems pertain to the self, marriage and family, race relations, economic life, and political life. This book provides assistance to those in need of ethical guidance. This type of guidance is in great need as world and Christian ethical aspects are becoming a growing concern. In writing this book, Barnette had a specific purpose for his readers to obtain. Barnette's purpose of this volume is to provide an introduction to Christian ethics which gives more attention to the biblical basis and the role of the Holy Spirit than is usually given …show more content…
The information that was presented was very well researched and backed by scripture. This in turn helped to implement a strong biblical emphasis on the subject. The material covered by Barnette can be very tough to not only write about but also to learn. The author set the book up nicely in order for the reader to learn and understand the material relatively easily. Barnette broke the book down into two separate parts. Each part is broken down into several chapters allowing the reader to learn quite effortlessly as the book progresses. This layout of the book made for an extensive yet understandable introduction to Christian ethics. In this book Barnette elaborates on some very interesting points about Christian ethics. I agree with the points that he has written about. Scripture and very knowledgeable research back up these points. Many of the views and points that Barnette makes in this book, I myself already shared. However, there were some views that he makes that I have learned and come to agree
