【Description】

Christianity isn’t about following rules, it’s about a relationship. The rise in popularity of this phrase coincides with a growing disinterest and misunderstanding regarding the role of God’s life-giving, perfect law in the Christian life. Rather than the source of joy it was intended to be, the law is viewed as an angry god’s restrictions for a rebellious people.

In Ten Words to Live By, Jen Wilkin presents a fresh biblical look at the Ten Commandments, showing how they come to bear on our lives today as we seek to love God and others, to live in joyful freedom, and to long for that future day when God will be rightly worshiped for eternity. Learn to see the law of God as a feast for your famished soul, open to anyone who calls on the name of the Lord.

• Written by Jen Wilkin, best-selling author of Women of the Word
• Equips believers to rightly understand and delight in the Ten Commandments
• Examines the historical background of each of the Ten Commandments and how they apply today
• Helps readers to grasp the significance of how the Law informs our understanding of true freedom
