A look at why given behavior is right or wrong in God's eyes
In this book, McDowell, examines why given behaviors are right or wrong from God's perspective. He leads readers to search for a precept from the Bible, then draw a principle from tht precept, which leads one to the person, God. Using this precept, principle, person approach, one can see how right behavior reflects God's person, or character

MCDOWELL HITS THE PROVERIAL NAIL RIGHT ON THE HEAD
As a teacher in a Christian high school, I see daily the problems in our youth recognizing right from wrong. I am not one who takes a lot of stock in statistics and McDowell spends a lot of space giving many, yet the stats show the need of our young people to recognize right from wrong. McDowell gives practical, Biblical suggestions which lead the reader back to not only the Word of God but to God Himself for the answers to what is right and what is wrong. The book not only speaks to how to help our young people but also challenges us adults to take a real good look at ourselves before we embark on trying to help others. This should be required reading for all youth workers!

A fundamentalist christian masquerade
I've just finished the book recommended by a friend. I found it to be nothing more than a platform for the author's very christian conservative views.
I absolutely do not agree with the author's statement, "our children are being raised in a society that has largely rejected the concepts of truth and morality". No way. Our children are being raised by parents and peers as they have been for thousands of years. We are responsible for their upbringing, not society. And we need to teach them religious tolerance. Not the type of venomous hatred this author seeps into his narratives.
