If you think bioethics is just for doctors and scientists, think again. Bioethics touches our everyday lives in so many ways. We ask questions like
How should I care for my aging parents?
Is stem cell research OK or not?
How can my church help a person with a chronic illness?
When's the right time to remove a loved one from life support?
Author Ruth Groenhout, selected as the 2009-2010 Calvin College Worldview Lecturer, presents these issues from the Bible's perspective using accessible, easy-to-understand language. Discussion questions in each chapter make this book an excellent choice for group study or personal reflection.

Betrayed by his best friend and enslaved by the Romans, Judah Ben-Hur seeks revenge but instead finds redemption through his encounters with Jesus Christ. Generations have thrilled to the sacred destiny of the mighty charioteer Ben-Hur, whose enduring tale began as a bestselling 1880 novel that later inspired equally popular stage and film interpretations. Combining the appeal of a historical adventure with a heartfelt message of Christian love and compassion, the story blends the visceral excitement of a quest for vengeance with the spiritual thrill of forgiveness.
Author Lew Wallace―a Civil War general, politician, and diplomat―conducted meticulous research into the ancient world to bring a vivid immediacy to his characters and settings, from life as a Roman galley slave, to the living death of exile, to a Jerusalem leper colony.
