Philosophy and Religion Scholar Kevin Kinghorn Releases “A Framework for the Good”

Dr. Kevin Kinghorn, professor of philosophy and religion at Asbury Theological Seminary, recently published A Framework for the Good. This book provides an ethical framework for understanding the good and how we can experience it in increasing measure. This original, carefully argued book will interest scholars and graduate students in moral philosophy and philosophy of religion.

In Part 1, Kinghorn offers a formal analysis of the meaning of the term “good,” the nature of goodness and why we are motivated to pursue it. In Part 2, Kinghorn shifts to a substantive, Christian account of what the good life consists of, as well as how we can achieve it.

A Framework for the Good is available in paperback and numerous digital editions from the University of Notre Dame Press.

In addition to this book, Dr. Kinghorn has published articles in philosophy of religion, moral philosophy, epistemology, and philosophy of action, and written, The Decision of Faith: Can Christian Beliefs Be Freely Chosen?
