Book Synopsis Ministerial Ethics by : Joe E. Trull
Download or read book Ministerial Ethics written by Joe E. Trull and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ministerial Ethics provides both new and experienced pastors with tools for sharpening their personal and professional decision-making skills. The authors seek to explain the unique moral role of the minister and the ethical responsibilities of the vocation and to provide "a clear statement of the ethical obligations contemporary clergy should assume in their personal and professional lives." Trull and Carter deal with such areas as family life, confidentiality, truth-telling, political involvement, working with committees, and relating to other church staff members. First published in 1993, this edition has been thoroughly updated throughout and contains expanded sections on theological foundations, the role of character, confidentiality, and the timely topic of clergy sexual abuse. Appendices describing various denominational ministerial codes of ethics are included.
Book Synopsis Gentle Shepherding by : Joseph Earl Bush
Download or read book Gentle Shepherding written by Joseph Earl Bush and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named "One of the Top Ten Books for Parish Clergy" for the year 2006 by the Academy of Parish Clergy! Gentle Shepherding offers a rare balance in an introduction to pastoral ethics, one that identifies deeply with the pastoral vocation and brings it into conversation with a developed body of ethical theory. The goal of the book is to equip seminarians and pastors with conceptual resources for clarifying moral responsibility in the practice of ministry. This responsibility includes three levels: the minister as a moral agent in offering care; the minister as a moral enabler in encouraging virtue in others; and the minister as a moral leader in facilitating congregational life and witness in society. Helping ministers and seminarians to think anew about their responsibilities and the moral quandaries in pastoral practice, Gentle Shepherding integrates theory with practice, providing case material for further reflection and discussion and at least one case study or exercise associated with each chapter.

Book Synopsis Pastoral Ethics by : W. Ross Hastings
Download or read book Pastoral Ethics written by W. Ross Hastings and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2021-10-27 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethics is freedom in Christ to pursue the good, true, and beautiful. Pastors regularly face concrete ethical questions. And they, too, pursue a moral life. In the busyness of ministry, it can be tempting to think pragmatically or derive one's ethics from the latest cultural concerns. But standard approaches to ethics, whether deontological, utilitarian, or virtue--ethical, all fall short of being distinctly Christian. Ethics ought to be grounded in the gospel and in our triune God. In Pastoral Ethics, W. Ross Hastings provides pastors an evangelical and trinitarian framework for moral formation and ethical discernment. For Hastings, ethics must be reclaimed as theological. Theology without ethics becomes gnosticism. Ethics without theology leads to legalism and death. Christian ethics participates in God's life and God's work. This communion with God leads to obedience to his commands as summed up in the Decalogue, and over several chapters Hastings provides a rich exposition for pastoral formation. Pastors find their identity in God, and this inspires right thinking and acting with regard to authority, life and death, sexuality, work and rest, speech, and desires. An approach to ethics that prompts faith, hope, and love, Pastoral Ethics is an essential guide for Christians in all ministry contexts.
Book Synopsis Pastoral Ethics by : Gaylord B. Noyce
Download or read book Pastoral Ethics written by Gaylord B. Noyce and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like most community leaders, clergy are constantly asked to make decisions that have far-reaching effects. For clergy, the matter is particularly complicated because of the many arenas in which they operate--counseling, church management, community affairs, ecumenical relationships, denominational politics, and others. In Pastoral Ethics, Gaylord Noyce looks at clergy as professionals, and shows what can be learned from the professional ethics of other disciplines. He also demonstrates the special responsibilities (and opportunities) that affect those who are ordained. A book at once practical and prophetic, Pastoral Ethics is the standard for a new generation.
Book Synopsis Religious Ethics and Pastoral Care by : Don S. Browning
Download or read book Religious Ethics and Pastoral Care written by Don S. Browning and published by Augsburg Fortress Publishing. This book was released on 1983 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This introduction to ethical reflection traces the long developing alienation between psychology and religious ethics. It also offers a concrete model of practical moral thinking than can help to reverse that movement and restore pastoral care as the bridge between theological and the psychological disciplines. Students and practitioners in the psychological and social sciences can learn much here about their own implicit ethical concerns. Ministers and congregations will value theologically and psychodynamically integrated approach to care, counseling, and the maintenance of a meaningful world."--from back cover.
