Book Summary

Even though we see them engraved on buildings and hear controversy regarding them in the news, the Ten Commandments are a mystery to most. One would suspect that in a random survey, few Americans could name more than five of the commandments, even with some prompting. Preston Taylor has made a bold attempt to place the truth of Scripture into an exciting, readable format with his compelling new work, The Eleven Commandments. In this short volume he has packed the history, context, and application most relevant to the original ten, and has updated them with the overarching comment of Jesus when He was asked about the commandments. Readers will be drawn through the pages by Taylor's easy-going style that allows one to leap from the concept on the page into life-changing understanding. Seldom has such power been packed into so few pages!
