Some people hate rules, and they are free to do so. God created humans with free will. But God doesn't want us to run wild.The Ten Commandments, which are repeated several times in the Bible, give us a roadmap on how to live life. But they are more than a moral code-and they are concerned with more than just appropriate conduct, correct values, and social order. They are a prescription for holiness, a spiritual life, and a life of faith.Looking beyond their prohibitive language reveals something about the will of God. For example, "Honor your father and mother" can imply the notion that we should not dishonor them. "Do not steal" can imply the notion of sharing and giving.By revisiting the Ten Commandments, Tom Kingery runs each law through a sieve that includes four perspectives important to the journey of faith-moral, ethical, social, and spiritual. By doing so, he breathes new life into the ancient laws. Reading this book will shed light on the path we take as we walk with God in obedience and loyalty.

The Evidence for GodFor approximately one hundred years, most secular scientists and the majority of the intelligentsia in the world have "preached" that God does not exist. Darwin's book, The Origin of the Species, published in 1859, was the primary impetus for this change in our world's viewpoint away from God. Today, many leaders in academia look at Christians (and others who believe in God) as bereft of intelligence. At the onset of the 20th century, there was very little scientific evidence to suggest that God was the Creator of the Universe. However, since 1917, amazing evidence has been discovered in the fields of cosmology and biology that a significant number of secular scientists admit points to an incredible Creative Force; most call this Force, God. The Philosophical, Scientific, and Historical Evidence for God presents this evidence in a detailed, yet understandable, manner. This book, Dr. Nichols' eleventh on theology, provides well-researched information showing the ever-increasing evidence for an omnipotent Creator. He considers it to be the magnum opus of his writing career. The significance of the Big Bang theory and the many weaknesses now recognized in the theory of evolution will be thoroughly reviewed. Philosophical and historical evidence for God will also be presented. Dr. Nichols is convinced that an open-minded reader will come away with the realization that God does, indeed, exist, and that He is the God of the Holy Bible.
