This book challenges current thinking on professional ethics and suggests new ways of looking at ethical issues.

The contributors to the volume (Michael Goldberg, Richard P. Vance, Deborah Femhoff, Nancey Murphy, Theophus H. Smith, Jack L. Sammons Jr., William H. Willimon, and Senator John C. Danforth) are outstanding representatives of their respective professions. In this book, using the categories of religion and narrative as methodological tools, they move readers to a more responsive, hopeful, and trutiful conduct of the professions.
