You Shall Not Covet Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 21, 2021

In the tenth commandment, God’s searchlight moves from actions to attitudes. The commandment is not against an outward act but it is aimed at a person’s intentions.

The Myth Of More Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Jul 26, 2021

The key to not coveting what others have is to be content with what you already have.

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 29, 2022

And what does God expect from his people? The ten commandments, within their frame of God's apocalyptic appearance at Mount Sinai.

Today, we are going to work through "kind of" a big section in Exodus. It's maybe a mistake, to do it this way. We are going to fly high over some of God's most basic, well-known commands, and they deserve to be explained better than I'm going to. But the passage as a ...read more
