Right and Wrong: Finding Values for the 21st Century (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781641734646)

A pandemic memoir on how to make ethical decisions from a progressive Christian perspective, Right and Wrong chronicles Ron Sisk's reflections on America's unprecedented divisions, particularly since 2020. Drawing from his studies in political science, American social history, and Christian ethics, he uses the concept of agape-love as an act of will that wants and works for the well-being of the other and oneself-to propose a workable paradigm for making decisions on a variety of current issues as well as new challenges. Each chapter ends with questions for reflection or for group discussion.

Ronald D. Sisk is the author of numerous articles as well as four books. Over twenty years, he served as pastor of four congregations in California, Texas, and Kentucky. In 2015, he retired from North American Baptist Seminary (later Sioux Falls Seminary) in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, as Emeritus Professor of Homiletics and Christian Ministry, having also served as academic vice president and dean of the faculty. He and his wife, Sheryl, live in Loveland, Colorado.
