JANUARY12, 2024 | WHEATON, Ill.—Crossway is pleased to announce that Ten Words to Live By: Delighting in and Doing What God Commands by bestselling author Jen Wilkin has surpassed 100,000 in sales across all formats (print, ebook, and audiobook).
In the book, Wilkin presents a fresh biblical look at the Ten Commandments, showing how they come to bear on believers’ lives today as they seek to love God and others, to live in joyful freedom, and to long for that future day when God will be rightly worshiped for eternity. Readers will learn to see the law of God as a feast for their famished soul, open to anyone who calls on the name of the Lord.
“The Ten Words are encouraging words, meant to give us hope—hope that we will live rightly oriented to God and others, hope that we will grow in holiness (Romans 15:4),” writes Wilkin. “They are not given to discourage but to delight. They are no less than words of life.”
Ten Words to Live By is Wilkin’s fourth book with Crossway to surpass 100,000 in sales:
- Women of the Word
- In His Image
- None Like Him
In the Gospel Coalition’s 2021 Book Awards, Ten Words to Live By received an honorable mention in the Proper Theology category and has received commendations from Ruth Chou Simons (founder, GraceLaced.com), Sam Allberry (Associate Pastor, Immanuel Nashville), and Hannah Anderson (author), among others.
