Items related to Easter People In A Good Friday World: Making Wise Moral...
The author asserts that Christians are an "Easter People" (made new of the resurrected Christ) trying to discern the will of God and make wise, moral decisions in a Good Friday world (a world that experiences the presence of sin and evil). This book is an attempt to help the reader consider carefully a process of making moral decisions. The method of making moral decisions focuses on the Christian character, virtues, and conscience. Readers are guided to think more carefully about their life and decisions as they seek to know and do the will of God. An excellent book for small congregational study groups.

Review:
This book reflects the thoughtfulness and experience of the master teacher author, Dr. James B. Hofrenning. Each chapter enables the reader to move from theory to practice, from substance to implication, from the objective to the subjective. --Dr. Paul Dovre,Concordia College
One of the most critical needs in the church today is intelligent, continuing discussion of the moral issues we face in church and society. Prof. Hofrenning's book is a helpful guide in furthering that discussion. It should be widely used. --Dr. Paul Jersild,Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary
Just a note to let you know how much Easter People in a Good Friday World- Making Wise Moral Decisions meant to me and the members of my study group. We have had good studies before but this one was the best. The case studies were wonderful and we still talk about them. --Carol Anderson,Parish Nurse and Lay Study Leader
