Moral Imagination and More

How do I attend to suffering and inspire healing in the complex twenty-first century? Medical humanities and theological education share this question as a matter of life and death. In this chapter, theologian and trained clinical ethicist Melinda McGarrah Sharp describes how narratives can illuminate moral dilemmas relevant to both health humanities education and theological education. Drawing on her training as a bioethicist and practical theologian and her teaching experiences in theological education, McGarrah Sharp frames pedagogical insights by philosophies of teaching and learning moral imagination as a significant way in to moral conundrums surrounding both suffering and healing today.
