Overview


A true intellectual feast and a step forward for the discipline of Christian ethics. The reader will not discover mere endorsements of the man or his idea, but they will find a dozen scholars advancing the conversation about those ideas in ways that we think matter very much today. - From the Introduction

These original essays by a diverse group of Christian thinkers present a rich and broad engagement with Glen Stassens concept of incarnational discipleship a major contribution to the discipline of Christian ethics outlined in his final book, A Thicker Jesus (2012). Stassen believed that his approach could strengthen faithfulness to Jesus Christ in the church and foster a stronger public witness in American society.

Exploring the term incarnational discipleship and its relevance for today are Lisa Sowle Cahill, Jacob Alan Cook, Miguel A. De La Torre, Stacey Floyd-Thomas, George Hunsinger, Hak Joon Lee, Peter J. Paris, Larry Rasmussen, Ron Scott Sanders, Peter M. Sensenig, and the editors.
