"e;When Jesus said, 'love your neighbor as you love yourself,'"e; observes Jim Philipps, "e;the neighborhood wasn't nearly as large and complex as it is today."e; In fact, * What does "e;love thy neighbor"e; mean in a world where we have the power to affect the lives of so many people whom we will never meet? * How do we practice Christian discipleship in the modern world where the "e;neighborhood"e; has global dimensions?* What happens to the poor in a society built on greed? As dangerous as the seven deadly sins are for individuals, says Philipps, we can't ignore the tremendous effect sinful actions have on our society as a whole. And in this engaging and thought-provoking book, he uses conscience formation as a way to examine the teachings of the Church on issues of social justice and to reimagine the seven deadly sins within a communal context. A must-read for parish leaders, formation directors, and all Catholics committed to living the social teachings of the Church in daily life.
