Sinopsis

Creation is a foundational pillar of the biblical storyline, yet it plays little role in contemporary evangelical ethics. Seeking to correct this oversight, Dennis Hollinger employs the creation story and creation themes throughout Scripture as a foundation for Christian ethics. 
 
After demonstrating why creation is theologically significant and important for Christian ethics, Hollinger develops major creation paradigms that provide ethical guidance on a wide range of issues, including money, sex, power, racism, creation care, social institutions, and artificial intelligence, among many others. Creation and Christian Ethics shows throughout that the triune God creates from love, and in that creation are moral designs for humanity's journey in God's world. 
 
Professors and students of Christian ethics will find this a valuable resource for the classroom, while pastors and church leaders will benefit from personal and small-group study.

    The Memphis Underworld King   Diggs Nolen's name was the byword for crime in 1920s Memphis. As a child, he dreamed of becoming a swashbuckling outlaw. He turned his back on a promising career, his family and consorted with the worst elements of society. Under the tutelage of train robber Frank Holloway, Nolen became a notorious con artist. Later, he and his gun-slinging wife built an empire out of selling narcotics and trafficking stolen goods. Law enforcement caught Nolen, but they could not hold him. Nolen escaped from Leavenworth Prison, led the largest jailbreak in Memphis history and confounded prosecutors with legal wranglings. Author Patrick O'Daniel details Nolen's quixotic quest for criminal fame that earned him the title King of the Memphis Underworld.

    Invest With Social Responsibility, It Can Be A Tool For GoodIn 1977, two years after I graduated from Brown University, college students around the country launched a movement against Apartheid. Their campaign focused on divestment: convincingAmerican corporations to sell shares of companies doing business with South Africa's Apartheid government. The foundation of their argument was moral and straightforward, that no one should profit from a system that brutally oppresses people. By the mid-1980s, the divestment campaign became made pariahs of the companies still willing to transact with the Apartheid regime. Reflecting on the movement, in 2010 Archbishop Desmond Tutu wrote, “We could not have achieved our freedom and just peace without the help of people around the world, who through the use of non-violent means, such as boycotts and divestment, encouraged their governments and other corporate actors to reverse decades-long support for the Apartheid regime.”Socially responsible investing is rooted in the recognition that money, because it holds power in people’s imaginations, can be a tool for accomplishing good.

    Emotional manipulation is a powerful yet often subtle form of influence that shapes human interactions in profound ways. It involves deliberately using emotions to control, persuade, or exploit others to achieve a personal objective. Unlike healthy influence, which fosters mutual understanding and respect, manipulation is often deceptive, one-sided, and aimed at serving the manipulator’s interests at the expense of the other person. While some forms of emotional influence can be harmless or even beneficial, manipulation crosses ethical boundaries when it distorts reality, erodes autonomy, and undermines personal well-being. 
    The impact of emotional manipulation can be significant, affecting individuals on both psychological and emotional levels. Victims of manipulation may experience self-doubt, confusion, guilt, and anxiety, often questioning their own perceptions and emotions. Manipulators, on the other hand, gain a sense of power and control, using tactics such as guilt-tripping, gaslighting, and passive-aggressiveness to achieve their desired outcomes. This dynamic is common in personal relationships, workplaces, and even society at large, where emotional influence is used to sway public opinion and reinforce social hierarchies. 
    One of the most challenging aspects of emotional manipulation is its subtle nature. Unlike overt forms of coercion or aggression, manipulation often operates under the surface, making it difficult to recognize until significant damage has been done. It may appear as concern, affection, or logical reasoning, but beneath the surface, it is designed to control another person’s emotions and decisions. In romantic relationships, this can manifest as excessive flattery followed by emotional withdrawal, creating a cycle of dependency. In the workplace, manipulative bosses or colleagues may use subtle guilt or praise to extract extra work without reciprocation.
