Renowned Washington, DC, pastor and teacher Msgr. Peter Vaghi illuminates the Ten Commandments as ways to live in a deeper relationship with Christ. Like its companion books in the Pillars of Faith series--The Faith We Professand The Sacraments We Celebrate--this third book on the moral life is ideal for use in small groups.In his latest addition to the Pillars of Faith series, Msgr. Peter Vaghi guides readers in an exploration of the choices they make in their daily lives. With simplicity and clarity, he unpacks each of the Ten Commandments using a three-pronged approach: discover how the commandment was understood in the Old Testament, understand how Christ fulfilled the commandment in his life and teaching, and examine the personal and practical implications of each commandment for life today.
James Martin, S.J., author of The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything, hails Vaghi's books as "firmly grounded in scripture and tradition, well written, clear, orthodox, to the point--and, best of all, wonderfully concise." In The Commandments We Keep, Vaghi draws from scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the writings of Benedict XVI to help readers understand that Christ's purpose was not to replace the commandments, but rather to empower his followers to live them in a new way.
