Excerpt from Dodging the Commandments
In this volume there has been no studied effort to present a series of sermons on The Ten Command ments. We have tried to avoid doing that very thing. We have sought to place the emphasis, not on the academic, but on the practical and common. A book of sermons on the Commandments would be read by but few professionals, and it might be that they would be the ones who would need it the least. Sermonic divi sions and subdivisions are eliminated. A sermonic ear mark would be considered a downright handicap to the influence of the book, such as we have had in mind. Centering at the heart of each Commandment is a great, burning truth, from which radiate other truths of some what lesser value. These truths easily bear upon the modern problems of today. Every Commandment admits of modern application.
