The scholarly book titled, The gift of life: Towards an ethic of flourishing personhood, has been published by AOSIS Scholarly Books.

This publication engages in the modern-day discourse about ‘flourishing life’ by proposing relevant theological perspectives on the concept of life and, in particular, its relevance for Christians living in this age and in an environment that poses major challenges to public morality and the common good.

In conjunction with the emerging theological interest in the concept of life, this project is a modest attempt to take part in the advancement of an ethic of life for today, under the rubric of an ethic of flourishing personhood. The point of departure is the biblical concept of the gift of life and what this gift entails for understanding human life, personhood, and moral agency today. Read more.
