In this short, accessible book, Steven P. Millies argues that since the 1970s, \u003cem\u003eA Consistent Ethic of Life\u003c\/em\u003e has been precisely the remedy for committed Catholics seeking to discern a faithful way forward amid escalating and divisive partisan politics. Drawing on rigorous scholarship, Millies deftly narrates--in prose eloquent yet clear--a new and thicker account of the historic, ecclesial, and theological development of the consistent ethic, from Vatican II through John Paul II to Pope Francis. As the US moves into yet another fraught election cycle, \u003cem\u003eA Consistent Ethic of Life\u003c\/em\u003e is a must read for thoughtful Catholics in parishes, classrooms, and the academy.\"\u003cbr\u003e --M.
