Books by Richard Wolff

From martial arts programs at suburban churches to urban boxing ministries geared towards at-risk youth, this book examines the substantial history of church sponsored combat sports, and presents arguments by Christian ethicists about whether and how they are compatible with church teachings and settings.

Discusses the depiction of various issues facing the church of their times in programs such as "The Flying Nun (1967-1970)", "The Father Dowling Mysteries (1989-1990)", and "7th Heaven (1996-2007)". This book addresses the role of women in the church, clerics reconsidering their call, the sexuality of clerics, and the ecumenical movement.
