Reviews
"""Davey is a pastor, professor, musician, and scuba diver. While he prefers swimming in the ocean depths amongst coral and sea life, I swim in a pool. On the bottom of the pool is a black line that helps me swim straight and count the number of strokes before I hit the wall. I swim the line. Davey suggests we 'walk the line' and follow the rules of Jesus as taught in Matthew's Gospel. With insightful commentary and illustrations from movies, art, classic rock, and spiritual writers, he provides imperative reading on the imperatives of Jesus. Jump into the waters with him and be challenged to swim the line."" --Daniel Scott, Moderator of the 146th General Assembly, The Presbyterian Church in Canada ""Walking the Line really challenged me to examine my own walk and relationship with God. I enjoyed Davey's insights on the importance of a consistent and authentic faith rather than seeking the 'spiritual highs.' The questions provided at the end of each chapter are thought-provoking and well suited to include as part of a journaling exercise. This is also an excellent book for a small-group study and discussion."" --Tony Kong, Executive Director of a global management consulting firm"
