People Are No Damn Good (eBook, ePUB)

A Pastor's Struggle with Ethics and Morality

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Over thirty-five years in the classroom and pulpit will give a person some perspective about homo ethicus--the ethical human being. In this intentionally non-academic contribution to the moral pursuit, Jimmy Watson offers personal anecdotes and reflections, sardonic wit, sarcastic humor, and most importantly, a wide array of information and laser-beam insights into his chosen field of study. He invites the reader to think deeply about the complexities and ambiguities of human nature and the discernment of good and evil from both secular and religious perspectives and encourages all of us to become the best damn people we can possibly be.

Autorenporträt

Jimmy R. Watson writes books that are insightful, personal, unconventional, accessible, and at times humorous. A native West Texas, his writings are best read on the back porch with a favorite beverage in hand and the sprinkler running or on the tailgate of a pickup next to a creek and an un-baited fishing pole. His works explore theology, biblical interpretation and application, and ethics, or whatever he's thinking about at the moment. Watson is the pastor at Weimar United Church of Christ in Weimar, Texas. He has led congregations in Texas, Missouri, Indiana, and Kentucky. He has a PhD in Theology and Ethics from Baylor University (1996). His life partner is Annie, a priest in the Roman Catholic Women's Priest movement. Together they have five children and five grandchildren that are spread hither and yon with no discernible migration pattern.
