Jubilee Centre on the Family and Sexual Ethics


Sally Bertlin (ed.), The Family and Sexual Ethics: Christian Foundations and Public Values (2013).

The Jubilee Centre makes available online a 23-page booklet on The Family and Sexual Ethics: Christian Foundations and Public Values. This flows out of an international conference held in Hong Kong in May 2011, organised by the Hong Kong Baptist University and the Jubilee Centre. The report is a collection of ten short (under two pages long) papers from the conference.

According to the blurb:

‘In recent years there has been a growing international interest and concern about the pressures of the environment and the consequences of this for the long-term survival of the planet. However, relatively little attention has been paid to the breakdown of the family and its consequences for the ecology of the planet. Family breakdown is being driven partly by divorce and partly by today’s sexual ethics, which then impact on rates of family formation and disintegration.’

The report is available as a pdf here.
