LOUISVILLE â The Rev. Dr. Robert L. Stivers, a renowned ethicist, died in Tacoma, Washington, on December 23, 2020, at age 80.
An ordained Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) minister, Stivers taught religion and ethics at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma for 37 years. Upon his retirement in 2009, he was appointed Professor Emeritus of Religion and Ethics.

He stands as one of a key group of Christian ethicists who helped bridge the gap between the church and the academy, deepening the churchâs social witness with their scholarship, activism, and concern for the General Assembly.
