Human Worth in Comparing Secular and Christian Perspectives


Add your own review!

Overview

This book integrates secular literature such as psychology, sociology, management, and organization studies with Christian and spiritual biblical literature. This book explores the importance of human worth in our personal and professional lives through an interdisciplinary approach that integrates human and societal worth with Christian and spiritual worth. Moreover, the book highlights values that receive little or no attention in secular literature. Overall, this book shows readers how human worth is often manipulated and undermined within societal worth in contrast to Christian worth with implications for cultivating leadership and education. This book focuses more on the biblical texts rather than the theological differences. In addition, this book situates itself on common biblical interests across Christian church denominations worldwide rather than exploring more on the secular cultural differences. This book positions itself from a non-denominational and Western perspective with a focus on biblical texts, theology, and secular literature. Readers that would be interested in this book are scholars and students in religion, ethics, and spirituality.
