The Christian In A Secular America discusses key issues facing Christians living in a secular culture. It reviews two recent news stories about the censorship of religious expression and a proposed hate crimes law. The class theme is about Christians serving as "salt and light" in the world by standing up for biblical values of marriage and human dignity. The document defines Christian ethics as being grounded in the gospel's transformation of people's hearts by the Holy Spirit. It asks questions about moral absolutes and relativism and whether morality can exist without God.
