The Christian Moral Life: Practices of Piety por Timothy F. Sedgwick
The author is out of touch with the current moral theology of the Episcopal Church. He forces the reader into a Christian Moral Theology based upon his traditional Christian values. His chapter on sexual relationships I personally found offensive and an attack on any other marriage relationship other than one between a man and a women. In addition the author takes very simple ideas and complicates them. The only reason I continued to read the book was it being required reading for a course.
This powerful -- indeed, deeply reverent -- book renews the topic of Christian ethics by showing readers that faithful moral living is achieved through daily "practices of piety." Written in a style accessible to nonspecialists, The Christian Moral Life provides teachers, pastors, counselors, and general readers with an excellent introduction to Christian Ethics
