Publisher Comments:
For most committed Christians, there is a strong link between religion and life. This book examines the moral questions of the day through the lens of each of the Ten Commandments and concludes that there is more than one Christian approach to difficult issues.
Synopsis:
For people of faith, religion and life are strongly connected.That's why so many voters cite "moral values" as their mostimportant guide when they head to the polls. But what exactlyare "moral values"? For most Christians, regardless of theirpolitical persuasion, the best way to figure that out is to startwith the Ten Commandments, the ultimate guide to morality.In God's Top Ten, author Anne Robertson examines the bigmoral issues of our day through the lens of each of the TenCommandments. A chapter on the Sixth Commandment, forexample (Thou shalt not kill), looks at such issues as abortion, war, capital punishment, and stem cell research.In a lively, engaging style that combines practical theology with asense of humor, Robertson proposes that there is more than oneChristian approach to the tough issues of our times, and that theCommandments have a social as well as personal dimension.

I was looking forward to Anne's new book after reading "Blowing The Lid Off the God Box". I have also had the pleasure to hear Anne preach at Trinity UMC in Gainesville, Florida. I will not look at the Ten Commandments in the same way again.
