David Matzko McCarthy s "Death Penalty and Discipleship" is a faith formation resource to help communities and individuals reflect more deeply on capital punishment. It incorporates Scripture, Catholic social teaching, and contemporary issues that focus on the meaning of God s self-giving in Jesus Christ and the implications of God s redemptive work in our lives. McCarthy shows how the church s stance against the death penalty fits with Scripture, even passages such as an eye for an eye... (Lev 24:19-20); he attends to the teachings of Jesus and draws out themes of restorative justice; and he concludes by locating work to end the death penalty within St. John Paul II s call for a new evangelization.
