This course considers different ways of thinking about good and right action: according to law, according to purpose, and according to virtue. Each of these will be considered and criticized in view of the Christian stance toward good works, especially with respect to repentance, faith, and regeneration. Current figures and trends in moral theology and moral philosophy will be considered, such as virtue ethics, the ecclesial ethics of Stanley Hauerwas, and two kinds of righteousness. (CEU 3.0)
