WHEN GOD GAVE HIS

people the Ten Commandments. He wrote them on stone, to symbolize their durable, lasting nature. He wrote them on both sides of the stone, to signify their thoroughness. And He wrote these laws with His own finger, to attest to their supernatural character.

Regrettably, it seems many Christians have neglected the im-portant lessons contained in the Ten Commandments. In fact, the author recounts the story of a classroom of seminarians who couldn't even name all ten of these laws! But in this carefully crafted study, Bill Hybels reintroduces modern readers to the Decalogue and shows how each commandment is surprisingly rich in guidelines for holy, victorious living today. He reminds us that the Ten Commandments weren't intended to be left on Mount Sinai: rather, God meant for us to experience their everlasting, complete, and divine lessons in refreshing ways, every day.

Bill Hybels is the pastor of a growing congregation at Willow Creek Community Church, South Barrington, Illinois.
