Reviews
This is a timely book! David Gill has drawn on a variety of sources--popular writings, ethical handbooks, biblical scholarship (including profound insights from the Jewish community), and historical lessons--to produce one of the best studies of the Ten Commandments to come our way for quite a while. Richard J. Mouw, president (retired), Fuller Theological Seminary Instead of simply pointing an accusing finger, Doing Right offers a truly refreshing and freeing alternative to today's seemingly ubiquitous ethical decay. David Gill's examples, illustrations and humor portray the genuine benefits of conducting business and life according to God's principles and priorities. Lori Randles Lagerstrom, sales director, Mary Kay Doing Right is a thoughtful, scholarly, humorous and loving exploration of God's model of relationships outlined in the Ten Commandments. I was captivated by David Gill's theme that treats negative boundaries as only the beginning of what must ultimately become positive mandates to love. This is an ethic that takes seriously our fallenness but offers hopeful ways to bring healing, justice, and freedom to ourselves and others. Rebecca Klint Townsend, MD
