This volume is an unabridged edition of Dogma and Preaching, a work that appeared in a much-reduced form in English, in 1985. The new book contains twice as much material as first English edition. "Dogma", for many people, is a bad word. For the well-informed believer, it shouldn't be. Dogmas are truths revealed by God, which should enlighten the minds, guide the choices, and gladden the hearts of Jesus' disciples, including pastors, deacons, and lay teachers.

EDITORIAL :

Of course the old rules were intimidating to many non gear heads and some are still afraid that the update will be as bad. The cowboy's decision to part with his "large love" is heart-wrenching on himself, the elephant, and the reader.
The book is written in a flowing style rich with elephant facts and wild west allusions to fence mending and cattle driving. I think they need to add a chapter devoted to only these kinds of businesses.. I reccommend this highly to anyone who cares about our past and future!. It should also be noted that HIT is not a magic formula. What a wonderful tribute to her husband. Next up is a mail truck, which soon finds itself stuck because of the broken-down ice-cream truck. Peterson is a strong believer that unless we make significant changes, our fiscal irresponsibility and the country's growing debt will significantly jeopardize future generations.
