Stumbling toward Ethics

My Ethics essay is taking a whole lot of my time at the moment. The idea--pray that I get there!--is to outline and critically evaluate Oliver O'Donovan's theological ethic, and I've decided to take homosexuality as a case study.

Along the way, I've stumbled across a lecture series (as a book) from 2001, entitled Common Objects of Love. I recommend it. It traverses terrain like: what binds people together in community, how our loves affect our thinking on right and wrong, how Christians should live among and with non-Christians, and more.

It's a seriously good read, and not nearly as dense as his big works.
