Abstract

The character building of Christian moral agents has an impact on the life of the faithful. Nowadays, there are various practices or behaviours that deviate from the proper teachings, such as bullying and ignoring the wrong social reality. Therefore, a character building is needed to reshape individuals to become moral agents by basing it on the formation of a distinctive character. The distinctive character can be exemplified through the figure of Jesus Christ as the prototype of Christian moral agent. This paper aims to present an approach from Wiliam Spohn as an offer for the formation of individual character as a Christian moral agent. The method used in this paper is a literature review of Wiliam Spohn's thoughts on virtue ethics and the life story of Jesus Christ in the New Testament as an approach that shapes the character of Christian moral agents. The result of this paper is that the contribution of Wiliam Spohn's thoughts can be one of the approaches that can be used to shape the character of Christian moral agents. By using the approach of virtue ethics and the life story of Jesus Christ in the New Testament from Wiliam Spohn can form a distinctive character for Christian moral agents.
