Why The 10 Commandments Matter
$19.99Add to cartDr. D. James Kennedy believes many of the social ills that plague America today-from an exponentially rising divorce rate to the violence in our schools-stem from society’s ever-increasing distance from the Ten Commandments.
In each case, obeying one or another of these ancient rules would have prevented the tragedies. And Christians, Kennedy declares, are no exception. “Sin is not only destroying individual lives and individual health, it is mercilessly bludgeoning the family in America.” Kennedy explains, “Repentance from sin is the condition on which God will hear our prayers and heal our land. How tragic that we Christians seem to have ignored that part . . . that repentance is so desperately needed today in the Church as it kneels to pray for the repentance of the nation!”
Dr. Kennedy looks at the Ten Commandments and shows how they are, in fact, a prescription for a happier life-and a guide for a safe and productive society.
