Making Moral Choices in a world full of options. By Scott Rae This book is the companion guide to Chuck Colson’s video series with the same title. It is an exploration of moral development based upon a natural law approach. As well as being a guide to live and have a worldview in todays culture. As a work on ethics and morality, it begins by illustrating how society got to its current situations through worldly examples including business, crime, pornography, and the media. The book makes a case for objective morality, which Christians believe is grounded in the Scriptures, with a call for individuals as well as society to return to an ethical and cultural foundation. Thus the book is a call for a revolution in ethics and virtue in our society. While the initial plan was for the book to sit alongside the video, you can easily read the book without viewing the videos. The question for the reader and for society, is our society fine, or is it in a state of moral decay? If it is a problem, how serious is it? May people, including Christians that I speak to do not see the issue as being a priority in today’s society. Scott Rae tackles the tough questions head on, with a fresh degree of honesty. He argues with sound principles, revealing a firm foundation of ethical, medical and Biblical knowledge and understanding. The book has plenty of real life, real world examples and succeeds in getting people to think about the ethical behaviours in society.
