Does God need our help?
Book Description
When cutting-edge medical technologies collide with ancient faith traditions, how do believers navigate the complex terrain of modern bioethics? John Frederic Kilner addresses this pressing question by examining how Christian principles can guide our understanding of revolutionary scientific developments that dominate today's headlines.
This thoughtful exploration tackles the moral dimensions of stem cell research, human cloning, assisted reproductive technologies, and end-of-life medical decisions. Rather than offering simple answers to complicated questions, Kilner helps readers develop a framework for thinking through these challenging issues using biblical wisdom and ethical reasoning.
Drawing from collaborative research conducted by the Center for Bioethics and Human Dignity, the book bridges the gap between rapid technological advancement and timeless spiritual values. Readers will discover how to evaluate emerging medical practices through the lens of Christian faith, considering both the potential benefits and moral boundaries of scientific innovation.
Whether you're grappling with personal medical decisions, seeking to understand current healthcare debates, or simply wanting to align your worldview with your beliefs, this resource provides practical guidance for navigating bioethical dilemmas. Kilner equips readers to engage thoughtfully with complex medical and scientific developments while remaining grounded in their spiritual convictions.
The result is a balanced approach that honors both human ingenuity and divine wisdom in addressing some of the most challenging ethical questions of our time.
