Title
Whose Virtue? Which Ethics? The Ecclesial Task of Virtue Formation
PAUL J. MORRISON
Abstract (from the Editorial of CPTJ vol. 10.1)
Paul Morrison offers a guide through the present state of virtue ethics. Starting with Alasdair MacIntyre, Morrison takes us through the major emphases of virtue formation, as well as highlighting weaknesses in the tradition. Focusing on the communal nature of virtue, Morrison invites pastor theologians to reflect on our work of shepherding a congregation toward Christlikeness.
