Evangelical Ethics: Issues Facing the Church Today, 4th ed.

For three decades, Evangelical Ethics has been regarded as one of the best
treatments of contemporary ethical problems that Christians face. John
Jefferson Davis brings mature biblical thought to issues such as homosexuality,
genetics, abortion, euthanasia, war and peace, the environment, divorce, and
remarriage.

This fourth edition includes a new chapter on the history and legacy of
slavery in the United States. Other chapters have been revised and updated.


“As I was serving a young and growing congregation serious about studying
ethics, this book became my primary resource. . . . [Dr. Davis’s] comprehensive
learning, accessible language, and unswerving commitment to the authority of
Scripture is evident on every page. . . . Every thoughtful Christian will want to
keep this book close at hand.”
—Charles Wingard, Assistant Professor of Practical Theology and
Dean of Students, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson

“I am delighted that John J. Davis’s Evangelical Ethics is appearing again in
a new edition. I have used the text in my classes for years. I admire its faithfulness
to Scripture and Reformed theology and its power to stimulate good
discussion. . . . I recommend the book highly.”
—John M. Frame, Professor of Systematic Theology and Philosophy,
Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando
