Virtue Ethics, Deontological Ethics, and Biotechnology

I'm starting work on a paper that will examine a virtue ethics approach to
biotechnology patent law. I'm getting reasonably well-versed in virtue
ethics from secular and Catholic social theory perspectives, but I'm also
trying to dig up evangelical perspectives. It seems there is some tension
between deontological and virtue approaches within evangelicalism -- or
maybe that's just my misperception based on early stage research. Anyway,
I'd be grateful if anyone here is aware of any good sources from an
evangelical / protestant perspective. (I'm aware of Hauerwas and the
anabaptist tradition).

Thanks.
