Christian ethics, writes theologian D. Stephen Long, is the pursuit of God's goodness by people "on the way" to a city not built by human hands. The cultivation of practical wisdom that comes from diverse sources, it draws on all that is good in God's creation and among the nations. In this Very Short Introduction, Long examines these diverse sources, discusses the relationship between Christian, modern, and postmodern ethics, and explores practical issues including sex, money, and power. The book also examines some of the failures of the Christian tradition, including the crusades, the conquest, slavery, inquisitions, and the Galileo affair. Placing them in the context of the theory and practice of ethics and their historical perspective, Long notes the challenges they raise for Christian ethics. He concludes with a discussion of their implications in the modern era, considering how this affects our lives in the present age. Long recognizes the inherent difficulties in bringing together "Christian" and "ethics" but argues that this is an important task for both the Christian faith and for ethics.About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.

bought these after another set of floating shelves didn't work. these are great and an awesome value!! i've used these in my guest bathroom and also throughout my house. they look great everywhere and are much easier to hang compared to others. my husband was hesitant after the last shelves but these turned out amazing. they are very sturdy and hold a good amount of weight. i would recommend buying these compared to any others.

Great Wall Shelves – Sturdy, Easy to Install, and a Fantastic Value!
Size: 4 pcs: 15.7*5.7, Color: White
I’m really happy with these wall shelves! They’re sturdy, well-built, and hold up perfectly under weight—no concerns about them sagging or bending. The installation was super simple, and everything was clearly labeled with no missing parts, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
I love that they come in a set of four, making them perfect for displaying books, plants, or decorative items in multiple spots around the room. The design is sleek and minimal, so they fit in with pretty much any style of decor.
Overall, these shelves are a great value, and I would definitely purchase them again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for reliable and easy-to-install shelving!
