Ten: Laws of Love Set in Stone
TEN timeless commandments. TEN simple rules for living. TEN laws that will change your life.
Imagine a world where love guides every action. A community where people place others before themselves. A place where God is recognized and respected. Thousands of years ago, God shared the framework for life as it should be. A simple code for daily living that is the foundation of our laws and principles. Yet society is slowly moving from this essential guide, as these absolute truths give way to a subjective culture. How can we reclaim these ancient tenants for living and apply them in a modern world?
TEN revisits the Bible's perfect design for our relationship with God and those around us. Inside you'll encounter TEN commandments that are as relevant now as the day they were given. Rediscover the wellspring of your faith. Reconnect with these profound truths. And reclaim God's vision for your life through the power of TEN.

“‘Biblical charity is more than merely giving away that which we can afford to do without anyway.’” (source)
“We might not turn all our desires into actions, but all our actions are a result of our desires.” (source)
“No, the Ten Commandments are not obsolete; they are absolute. They were not made for any particular period in history. They were made for human nature and therefore were commandments for all seasons, all centuries, and all cultures. They are as universal and perpetual as honor and truth. No nation can survive apart from a moral base built on them.” (source)
“Martin Luther. He said that our basic human problem is that our hearts are ‘curved in on themselves.’ His diagnosis holds today. The person we are most concerned about in the world is our self. We are all self-obsessed. The root of covetousness is selfishness.” (source)
“Law and liberty are not in opposition. In fact, law is at the heart of liberty. Laws do not restrict us; rather they free us to live in order and harmony.” (source)
