Our response to moral questions, John MacArthur writes, is not determined by politics, economics, personal preference, popular opinion or human reasoning, but grounded in what God has told us is true about ourselves and our world. On that basis this volume takes up the issues Christians are most often pressed about: political activism and environmentalism, the cult of celebrity, entertainment and escapism, homosexual marriage, abortion, birth control and surrogacy, euthanasia and suicide, immigration, disasters and epidemics, and the problem of evil.

The contributors write from a conservative evangelical position and argue each case from Scripture rather than from political alignment, and the book is explicit that it is offering the biblical case as they understand it. A topical reference guide gathers the relevant passages on each concern, which makes the volume useful for teaching, for answering questions in a small group, and for a reader who wants to see how the arguments are built. 272 pages.
