An exploration of loveand justice, two significant keys to understanding the principles of Christian ethics. Thomas Schubeck reviews the significance of love and justice within the Christian tradition and how they were understood and applied by the prophets and Jesus, by Augustine, Thomas Aquinas, Reinhold Niebuhr and John Paul II. Foundational for these key historical figures, love and justice are also the keys today to practices of nonviolence, war and peace, working for the common good, and establishing solidarity. "Love That Does Justice" is ideal for the classroom as well as parish study groups. Chapters include discussion questions, sidebars, case studies, and recopmmeded readings.
