Sinossi

In Faith and Faithfulness Gilbert C. Meilaender suggests that Christians should not try to develop an autonomous ethic; neither, however, need they deny the common ground that exists with those who stand in other traditions. He then discusses human nature as creaturely, sinful, and justified--using these categories to think about such topics as the relation of humans to their environment, the meaning of personhood, and the meaning of original sin.
