Christian Ethics in the Workplace

Christian Ethics in the Workplace is a relatively quick read; however, it is not light reading. Hilgert, Lochhaas and Truesdell detail real-life situations where the right choice isn't as neat as clean as many other books would imply. They then provide guidelines for logical, systematic consideration of conflicts from a Christian perspective. This book would be an excellent gift for anyone moving into a supervisory position.

A philosophy/ethics prof, a pastor, and a business executive join to produce a small, but masterful delving into the area of Christian business ethics.As Luther was major influence of the restoration of work as a pleasing service to God (also see the fine work, "Your Work Matters to God), these Lutherans present the topic from each of their expertise and background.Sprinkled throughout are Case Studies, Bible Studies, and Questions for Answering and Discussion, making this a worthy individual or Bible Study group read.Their approach and admonitions are concise and Biblical, and at the same time, cognizant of the implications in the practical, realitistic world of the "dog eat dog" world that most professions are.Taking Christ with us where we spend a great deal of time at work is the significant theme, and provides much for one to think and pray and apply, all the time seeking to be pleasing to our God and of service to our employers, employees and customers. An important work in this age of pragmatism, realtivism and pluralism, while at the same time seeking not to develop attack Christians who flaunt a Moral Majority type seize and capture mentality. Well balanced and written guide for the Christian exploring how to be of further service to the Good Lord.
