Are Christians out of touch with complex moral decision-making? Christian Morality: An Interdisciplinary Framework for Thinking about Contemporary Moral Issues provides readers with a framework for identifying and applying Christian moral principles to divisive issues. First, readers learn of the theological and philosophical foundations of Christian ethics. Two additional chapters explain how personal and social factors influence our capacity to think critically and Christianly about morality. Second, readers will learn about forming Christian moral judgments by seeing how different thinkers address six contemporary moral issues: abortion, same-sex relationships, equal treatment of men and women in the workplace, sex education, and racial bias in incarceration polices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs a rhetorician, I repeat often to students that 'how we talk about things matters.' What Sutton and Schmidly have provided in this text is an admonition to readers that how we think about things matters. Drawing from both the philosophical and psychological study of morality, the editors and contributors challenge the reader to consider how we think about morality, but also how to apply a moral framework to the issues and situations that we encounter in our homes, churches, and society. How we talk about these issues and moments matters, but if we are to speak in a way that allows us to demonstrate real influence we must first consider the thought with which we engage to formulate our response. This is a book that is both meaningful and accessible to the scholar, pastor, and lay person alike and a must-read for anyone who seeks to speak into the world as a voice of redemption. --Joy E. A. Qualls, Chair, Department of Communication Studies, Biola University\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBooks on moral theory and applied ethics abound. They are readily available in bookstores everywhere as well as online. What makes the present volume distinctive is its interdisciplinary approach to moral concerns. Here we have Christian scholars, representing a variety of academic disciplines and professional backgrounds, engaging foundational questions as well as contemporary moral issues. The Christian community is indebted to Drs. Sutton and Schmidly for bringing this volume to us. --Michael D. Palmer, Professor of Philosophy, Regent University School of Divinity\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChristian Morality is a timely and accessible resource that provides the reader with the language, the categories, and the concepts that help us talk responsibly and respectfully to each other about the topics that matter most to us.

Even seasoned researchers could benefit from reviewing this book and keeping it handy for reference, but undergraduate and master's students should find it particularly useful for grasping basic research constructs and designing simple survey projects.-Joe D. Wilmoth, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Human Development and Family Science, Mississippi State UniversitySutton's Creating Surveys is a treasure trove of valuable resources and easy to follow instructions that has been created to increase the validity and reliability of survey research. It is a long overdue addition to the researcher's toolkit -Johan Mostert, PhD, Director of Research, CompACTCreating Surveys is a practical and readable handbook for researchers providing a broad look at the many facets of survey research. I highly recommend this text for doctoral students and researchers utilizing and creating survey research. Dr. Sutton provides objectives to establish a clear purpose for each chapter. He brings to life quality survey components with clear examples from a variety of topics and fields of study. -Shonna Crawford, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Education in Literacy, Education Department Chair, Evangel UniversityHaving guided dozens of Doctor of Ministry students through research projects for over ten years, I can attest to the fact that achieving quality design of assessment tools-and accomplishing proper interpretation of survey results-can present considerable challenges to students.

Olena, Associate Professor and Doctor of Ministry Project Coordinator, Assemblies of God Theological SeminaryMany are intimidated by the confusing process of gathering and interpreting empirical data and give up before they even begin. Creating Surveys simplifies this process and can help researchers, professionals, students, and lay people alike easily access data that can be used to affect change in the future.
