The Society of Christian Ethics has honored Monan Professor of Theology Lisa Sowle Cahill with its 2023 Lifetime Achievement Award.

A scholar of global renown and influence, Cahill is the author of 10 books and hundreds of articles and book chapters on topics such as sex and gender, bioethics, war and peacemaking, Catholic social teaching, Christology and ethics, and the history of Christian ethics.
She serves on 11 editorial boards, and has co-edited seven books as well as 13 issues of the international journal Concilium. She is a former president of the Society of Christian Ethics and the Catholic Theological Society of America.
Beyond her scholarship and service, Cahill is also known as an influential and highly regarded teacher. In 2020, a festschrift titled was published, featuring contributions from her former doctoral students as well as an overview of her work in the field.
