Rumours of a Better Country: Searching for trust and community in a time of moral outrage

Try reading the Ten Commandments and ask, ‘How would I use these for an evangelistic discussion group, or for a series of apologetic messages?’ This book gives some handy hints.

The author takes you to a café ‘somewhere in Central Europe’ where customers discuss the qualities of a ‘better country’. Stimulus is offered by a sculpture that represents the Decalogue. Soon, discussion in earnest begins at ten tables where values and concepts represented by the Ten Words are debated. Two chapters open up fundamental values such as trust, goodness, power, and freedom before a substantial chapter is devoted to each commandment.
