The Society for the Study of Christian Ethics is planning a conference at Westcott House, Cambridge on 5-7 September. The conference is open to both students and faculty members in the disciplines of ethics, theology, religion, philosophy, politics, and sociology, and the conference poster can be downloaded here.

This year’s conference is entitled ‘The Sermon on the Mount and Christian Ethics’, and speakers include the John Battle, Richard Bauckham, Carolyn Muessig, Oliver O’Donovan, Susan Parsons, and Glen Stassen.

There is a Call for Papers which can address either the conference theme or more general work-in-progress. But you’ll need to get cracking because the application deadline for giving a paper is 20th June 2008. Proposals and enquiries should be emailed to Jeffrey Bailey.
