520 _aThe central intention and unifying focus of these essays is the attempt to do responsible and constructive Christian ethical reflection. There would be nothing remarkable about this except that for many the idea of trying to do Christian ethics has become a doubtful enterprise. It is the contention of this book that the current difficulty of Christian ethics stems from the far too narrow conception of moral experience accepted by many philosophical and religious ethicists. When ethics is limited to an analysis of the justification for particular actions, then it is indeed difficult to make sense of Christian ethics. The language of the Gospel includes, but points beyond, judgments about particular actions and practices to the nature of the sef and how it is formed for our life project.
