Author of such major books as "Remembering Jesus: Christian
Community, Scripture, and the Moral Life, Allen Verhey has become
one of today's most trusted Christian voices in contemporary
ethics, including the moral challenges that new medical
technologies pose to Christian faith and decision-making.
With this new book Verhey brings the biblical tradition to bear
on contemporary bioethical concerns. Drawing on an unmatched depth
of insight in these two realms, Verhey explores how the Bible can
illuminate and guide medical ethics. He argues that churches are
called to think and speak clearly about bioethical concerns, and he
lays out here the scriptural tools for them to do so. After firmly
grounding Christian ethical discourse in Scripture, Verhey shows
how the Bible can be applied to such pressing questions as
suffering, genetic intervention, abortion, reproductive
technologies, end-of-life care, physician-assisted suicide, and
more.
Filled with faith-based wisdom and apt illustrations of the
moral dilemmas discussed, this book is a must-read for Christians
grappling with the ethical dimensions of medicine today.
