Theological Ethics
An Ethnography of Grace, Sin, and Intellectual Disabilities
Lorraine Cuddeback-Gedeon, Mount St Mary's University, USA Using ethnographic fieldwork, this book offers a deeper understanding of how grace and sin are visible within the lives and relationships of people with intellectual disabilities. Lorraine V. Cuddeback-Gedeon illuminates the point that human agency is both enabled by and limited by dependency relationships. Only by recognizing these complex layers of agency can Christian ethics more broadly address the place of hope, grace, and resistance against structures of sin and injustice.

Christian Kinship
Family Relatedness in Christian Practice and Moral Thought
David A. Torrance, University of Winchester, UK Torrance critiques the special privileging of family, the 'blood tie.' In contrast to European and American cultural assumptions, he argues that it is kinship in Christ that is the basis of a truly Christian account for social ties. The book presents some historical and contemporary examples of practices, such as monasticism, L’Arche and spiritual kinship, displaying the outworking of kinship in Christ. In this way, the book aims to stimulate the moral imagination to consider Christian kinship might be lived out in miniature, in everyday life.

Brendan Case, Harvard University, USA In this theological meditation on the human being as an accountable animal, Brendan Case argues that accountability is not just a structural feature of human institutions: it is also a disposition to submit to rightly-constituted authority, whether divine or human. He relates this innovative conception of accountability to the key themes of justice, justification, and judgment. Offering a fresh and ecumenically minded perspective on justification, purgatory and hell, the book also engages with developments in contemporary philosophy and moral theology.
