In Faith and Faithfulness Gilbert C. Meilaender suggests that Christians should not try to develop an autonomous ethic; neither, however, need they deny the common ground that exists with those who stand in other traditions. He then discusses human nature as creaturely, sinful, and justified--using these categories to think about such topics as the relation of humans to their environment, the meaning of personhood, and the meaning of original sin.

Industry Reviews

"Faith and Faithfulness . . . does not develop a specific thesis but rather offers a series of essays on Christian morality and some of its practical applications from the point of view of the Lutheran tradition. Meilaender's work, extremely rich in content, begins with an exposition of the 'singularity' of Christian ethics [and] ends with a superb chapter that compares the secular concern for the self with the Christian concern for the Divine Other through a comparison of The Confessions of St. Augustine with the Reveries of the Solitary Walker of Jean-Jacques Rousseau."--America
