My latest: on pastors and biomedical ethics, in CT
This morning I have a column in Christianity Today called “So What If the Bible Doesn’t Mention Embryo Screening?” It’s about the kinds of moral and theological questions raised by new technologies that are not directly or explicitly addressed in Scripture, and thus the kinds of intervention and teaching demanded of pastors for the sake of ordinary believers’ guidance in difficult decisions, and the general silence or unpreparedness everywhere in evidence today.
I tried to thread the needle. I’m sure readers will let me know whether or not I succeeded.
