Mouw suggests that a Calvinist perspective on moral theology can profit from an openness to some contemporary developments, particularly narrativist ethics, feminist thought and the insights gained from the charismatic movement."" —America ""This is an excellent book, astutely crafted and argued. Mouw has reintroduced divine command morality to contemporary Christian ethics, and his work should be central in the dialogue he encourages."" —The Christian Century “Mouw succeeds admirably in his fundamental task of elucidating the Calvinist tradition of ethics. . . .
