"In The Obedience Option, David Hegg not only challenges the reader to obedience, but he motivates me to pursue a life of obedience, and provides me a roadmap explaining how I can grow in obedience from a right motive. David shows me how obedience springs from faith, and further instructs me regarding how to grow my faith so that it becomes an effective shield against the fiery darts of temptation. Many books on sanctification discuss what it is, and why it's important, but this book provides practical advice showing a biblical path to an obedience that is better by far than any other alternative. I commend The Obedience Option for your reading and application."
Terry Catron, Director of Finance, Intuit, Silicon Valley, California

"The greatest gift David has given us in The Obedience Option is to proclaim the truth that the only way to overcome a passion for sin is with an overwhelming passion for righteousness and help us develop that passion. David's writings are especially credible to me, because I know David and his passion for righteousness does drive his personal life."
Paul Friesen, Conference Speaker, Author and Founder of "Home Improvement Ministries"

"Conventional wisdom in this pragmatic age of ours insists that it's always easier to ask forgiveness than to ask permission. Scripture says almost the exact opposite: "To obey is better than sacrifice" (1 Sam. 15:22). David Hegg has written this very helpful book to show why obedience to God is always the best of all our choices. Carefully, skillfully tracing the theme through several passages of Scripture, he shows why obedience is not merely our duty; it can also be our delight. Easy to read and yet thought provoking, this is a fine book on a supremely important topic."
