The Art of Cycling, Living, and Dying - Paperback
by D. Stephen Long (Author)
Forty years of avid bicycling came to a conclusion for D. Stephen Long in early October, 2020. Fearing his own imminent death required Long to reflect on life, on its beginnings, middle, and endings. This work uses the lessons learned from cycling, and the experience of the rapid onset of illness, to discuss God, friendship, racism, sexuality, justice, virtues, vices, and much more. It offers a moral theology but one more in keeping with how we take it up--not through theories but in the practices that make up everyday life. Attention to everyday life can help us live well and in so doing prepare us to die well.
D. Stephen Long is Cary M. Maguire University Professor of Ethics at Southern Methodist University. He is an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church and has authored seventeen books, including Truth Telling in a Post Truth World (2019), and Augustinian and Ecclesial Christian Ethics: On Loving Enemies (2018).
