Additionally, humble your heart is mean to accept varieties of opinions, even the ones do not agree with, however, at least let others to present their ideas. “Do not judge, or you too will be judged” (p. 41). In other words, do not compare with others; accept varieties ideas connected with the last principle working with the team members to reach the final product. Principle two is to be a follower first, which means to start at the basic. In the book Lead Like Jesus has also mentioned the
This is why God created a universe fit for human life, and why he laid down guidelines for how to live our lives. According to Christianity, each one of us is created for communion with God; God wants to know us, to love us, and to rejoice with us. Examples in the Bible are Proverbs 19: 21 and Ephesians 3: 20. The most basic principle of the Christian moral life is the awareness that every person bears the dignity of being made in the image of God. He has given us an immortal soul and through the gifts of intelligence and reason enables us to understand the order of things established in his creation.
Also, it shows that it’s only guiding the situationist, rather than telling them, as they should make the most loving decision, and there could be two options that could have the same amount of love in their outcome. In contrast though, it states that you “must” which isn’t guiding, but telling. The second presumption is relativism, which states that there is no absolute and so you should make the most loving decision, however, no decision is ultimately going to be the right one for everyone. This guides the situationist in the way that they are again making the decision on what they feel is the most loving thing to do. However, if someone following situation ethics wasn’t a Christian, then they would be forced to make a decision based on a religion that they don’t believe in; but it could be argued that Christian love is similar to religions all around the world.
He believes that one should live their life learning from their “mother and nurse and father and tutor” (18). One should follow in their footsteps “and if [they] obey, well and good; if not, [they are] straightened by threats and blows, like a piece of bent or warped wood.” It is his process of education. Protagorean moral education mainly gives a person habits, not knowledge, because they have to follow a certain pattern. Protagoras thinks by following these patterns, a person will be morally just. Socrates believes that there is moral knowledge but it cannot be taught.
Wright also, narrates confrontation to articulating empathy for an individual in assisting them to make healthier choices. On the other hand, the volume misses the mark to mention the awareness of biblical rebuke and the right the right time to use this kind of confrontation. If confrontation is used too quick in the relationship it can cause damage to the counselor’s relationship with the counselee, but then again the type of confrontation necessary is also a significant concern that ought to be
This presents an issue with the moral and rational reasoning behind the deeds. It’s understood that the act is warranted by the divine and therefore the ethical is no longer in effect. The next term to define is the one that most of us would be familiar with and can relate to. If you’re a religious individual or have some faith in the ultimate, you might consider yourself labeled under this category. As previously stated, in order to be a KoF, you must be willing to nullify the ethical standards you are most accustomed to in order to comply to the declaration of God or any other divine or spiritual medium.
Unit 304 2.1 While working in care, the aim is to give the best possible standard of care to service users, but sometimes there can be a conflict beetween the individual’s or their family’s wishes and rights and the duty of care. In this case the most important thing is to decide whether the person is aware of the risks and consequences of the decision and has the capacity to make the decision. Before taking best interest decisions I have to make sure that the person definitely lacks the capacity. The person or their next of kin has an overall right and responsibility in decision making for issues relating their care, and I need their consent to deal with certain issues. When a dilemma arises, my responsibility is to support individuals or their families to make informed choices.
There are strengths and weaknesses in both models. I felt both had a weakness in that they assume there is a basic assumption that is wrong in order to create a problem and did not leave room for biological factors. In Crabb’s model it all starts with a “need” that has to be filled. To me, this is a weakness because it does not allow for medical disorders. In making sure that the secular psychology principles align with biblical thinking the biological issues seem to be forgotten.
* The counselor must be qualified to counsel and be trained in the area of the client's need. Though sessions are pastoral in nature and orientation, sharing Scripture is not sufficient as a professional counseling venue. * The counselor must know her limitations and refrain from counseling those she is not trained to help. In that instance, a referral will be made to the appropriate
Now I will explain situation ethics, the idea developed by priest Joseph Fletcher in the 1960’s. Situation ethics is deciding the best thing to do in a situation when we feel there are no particular moral guidelines to follow. Some people would describe situation ethics as a modern day dilemma, and that maybe it makes you more confused about a situation if you already had your mind partially made up- as it often comes to two conclusions that you have to decide which one is best; it does however help you make an informed decision. Some would argue that situation ethics is immoral because it gives everyone the chance to prove everything in a positive light, which surely is not beneficial for our society. Through practicing situation ethics, you show pragmatism, the Christian goal is love, and you must try and achieve love no matter what.
