The Runway: Reflections on the Ten Commandments

Suppose you are flying alone at night. It is stormy and you are lost. Your fuel is running low.... You are about to give up when suddenly there is a break in the clouds and there below you is a narrow string of lights. A place to land! Thank God! Would you be angry because the path between the lights is narrow? No! It guides you to life! With this opening statement in his introduction, Dr. Robert Tuttle leads to a fascinating study of the Ten Commandments. These much-needed messages will become sermon fodder for pastors preparing a series on the commandments. Each one is well illustrated to hold both reader and listener interest. Chapters include: • The Ten Commandments And The New Morality • False Gods And False People • The Rediscovery Of Reverence • The Christian Home, Our Hope For A New World • Life Yields Only To The Honest Man • Uncontrolled Desires Will Wreck Your Life ... and more!
