"Kingdom Ethics is arguably the most significant and comprehensive Christian ethics textbook of our time. Michelle A. Clifton-Soderstrom, North Park Theological Seminary

Christian churches across the spectrum, and Christian ethics as an academic discipline, are often guilty of evading what Jesus actually said about moral life, focusing instead on other biblical texts or traditions.   This evasion of Jesus has seriously malformed Christian moral witnesswhich Jesus said is tested by whether we put his words into practice.

David Gushee and Glen Stassens Kingdom Ethics is the leading Christian introductory ethics textbook for the twenty-first century. Solidly rooted in Scriptureand uniquely focusing on Jesuss teachings in the Sermon on the Mountthe book has offered students, pastors, and other readers a comprehensive and challenging framework for Christian ethical thought. Writing to recenter Christian ethics in Jesus Christ, Gushee and Stassen focus on the meaning of the Kingdom of God, perennial themes of moral authority and moral norms, and all the issues raised by the Sermon on the Mountsuch as life and death, sexual and gender ethics, love and justice, truth telling, and politics.
