Ministerial Ethics provides both new and experienced pastors with tools for sharpening their personal and professional decision-making skills. The authors seek to explain the unique moral role of the minister and the ethical responsibilities of the vocation and to provide "a clear statement of the ethical obligations contemporary clergy should assume in their personal and professional lives." Trull and Carter deal with such areas as family life, confidentiality, truth-telling, political involvement, working with committees, and relating to other church staff members. First published in 1993, this edition has been thoroughly updated throughout and contains expanded sections on theological foundations, the role of character, confidentiality, and the timely topic of clergy sexual abuse. Appendices describing various denominational ministerial codes of ethics are included.

Trull & Carters book is an excellent resource for thinking through the ethical challenges that face today's clergy. They discuss the basic foundation of ethics and support their argument for clergy ethics by helping clergy see a balance between a "calling to the ministry" and seeing oneself as a professional. They address various practical issues such as dealing with former pastors in a local church, political involvement, etc. One issue not dealt with is the issue of dual or multiple relationships that clergy have with parishoners and how to manage the boundaries effectively. But overall it is a good resource to have in every minister's library.
