Natural law has long been a cornerstone of Christian political
thought, providing moral norms that ground law in a shareable
account of human goods and obligations. Despite this history,
twentieth and twenty-first-century evangelicals have proved quite
reticent to embrace natural law, casting it as a relic of
scholastic Roman Catholicism that underestimates the import of
scripture and the division between Christians and non-Christians.
As recent critics have noted, this reluctance has posed significant
problems for the coherence and completeness of evangelical
political reflections. Responding to evangelically-minded thinkers'
increasing calls for a re-engagement with natural law, this volume
explores the problems and prospects attending evangelical
rapprochement with natural law. Many of the chapters are optimistic
about an evangelical re-appropriation of natural law, but note ways
in which evangelical commitments might lend distinctive shape to
this engagement.
