Abstract
"McClendon deals with the anastatic strand of Christian ethics in Part III of his book, Ethics. 1 For McClendon, the resurrection of Jesus Christ is the sine qua non of the Christian life itself, offering a new way of construing the world and affecting a transformation of human moral life. Water baptism becomes the inception of resurrection morality. McClendon’s theoretical chapter shows the moral relevance of the resurrection. The biographical chapter tells of Dorothy Day (1897-1980), founder of the Catholic Worker Movement and a shaper of eschatological peace through participation in life in the Spirit. The application chapter discusses the transformation of human life due to the resurrection, and the centrality of peacemaking for Christians in the light of the eschatological future."
