Throughout history, many people have rejected God because they wanted to act immorally--why does it seem like those walking away from God today believe God is the immoral one?
There are so many competing visions of morality. One's culture, background, political affiliation and religious beliefs (or lack thereof) have profound impacts on our moral thought. What one person says is right another says is wrong, and vice versa, leading to much debate and confusion.
The God of the Bible steps into this environment with robust clarity about what is truly right and wrong, good and evil. The issue is, we don't always understand why He says this or that, and we don't always like it if it competes with our pre-existing moral thought. And if at one point in time His design for human flourishing was at least respected--increasingly so it is derided as backwards, regressive, or even harmful.
For Our Good Always argues that our thinking about morality is profoundly reductionistic, lacking necessary categories that different cultures and times might help us see more clearly. And it offers a truly important consideration: What if God's boundaries and rules for us are actually--deeply and unmistakably--for our good?
Through the lens of the Ten Commandments, it explores that question and more, such as:
- Who gets to decide between right and wrong?
- Do we each get our own truth?
- Why does God give us rules and boundaries?
- What is going on with some of the things I don't understand in the Bible?
- Why are some of my Christian friends walking away from the faith?
This book is published in conjunction with a teaching series at Midtown Fellowship, a family of churches in the Columbia, SC metro area. Find more resources at ForOurGoodAlways.com.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to BooksRun, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
