In this message from Exodus 20.17, we confront the final commandment: "Do not covet." Coveting is more than wanting something. It is a misplaced desire that looks to possessions, relationships, status, and circustances to provide security, fullfillment, significance, and contentment that God alone can give.

In this message from Exodus 20.16, we study the 9th word: "Do not give false testimony against your neighbor." In a world dominated by rumors, online outrage, half-truths, gossip, and public accusations, God call His people to be true witnesses. This command reaches beyond obvious lies and includes deception, exaggeration, malicious reports, unverified claims, and actions that wrongly damage one's reputation. As we look at this Word, we will look to Jesus who is "the way, the truth, and the life." We will also learn how to walk in the light, handle information wisely, and reflect God's heart for truth in all areas of life.

"Do Not Steal" may sound simple, but the 8th Word reaches far beyond shoplifting, robbery, or the theft of a soda from a vending machine. In this message, we explore how theft begins in the heart before it ever become an outward action. We will learn how God instituted boundaries for Israel that respected justice, restitution, personal responsibility, and the dignity of our neighbors. Theft is never merely a property issue; it is a spiritual one. Join us as we discover that this Word is not only a prohibition, but an invitation into our new life in Messiah that produces honesty, contentment, godly work, restoration, and love for others.

What does it mean to truly long for god? In this message from Psalm 84, we explore the deep blessing found not in perfect circumstances, but in dwelling with God, drawing strength from Him through seasons of weeping, and trusting His goodness above every distraction. As we set the "highways" of our hearts twoard Him, God meets us with His presence and turns dry valleys into places of renewed strength. We are also challenged to consider how a life centered on God shapes the way we love our neighbors. Discover why one day in God's presence is better than thousands elsewhere and how to pursue a deeper hunger for Him in everyday life.

Do not murder. From Exodus 20.13 to Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5, this teaching explores how this 6th Word guards the image of God in every person and calls us to proactively protect life.

What does it mean to honor your father and mother in every season of life? In this message from Exodus 20:12, we explore the fifth commandment as a bridge between loving God and loving others—beginning at home. Honor is more than obedience; it is an attitude shaped by God’s grace, marked by respect, care, listening, responsibility, and humility. From childhood to adulthood and the care of aging parents, discover practical wisdom for living out this command.

This teaching explores Exodus 20.8-11 and the gift of Shabbat as more than a rule to follow--it is an invitation to rest, trust, and remember God's faithfulness. In a world ruled by urgency, hustle, and self-provision, Shabbat interrupts our striving and points us back to the sufficiency of Messiah, the goodness of God, an the identity we have in Him. Together we examine the meaning of Shabbat, its purpose int he life of Israel, and how believers today can approach Shabbat with wisdom, liberty, and grace. We consider how rest shapes our sould, renews our dependence on God and helps us offer that to others.

In this message on Exodus 20.7, we explore what it means to bear God's name in the world. Taking God's name is more than avoiding a curse word--it's about representing His character, reputation, and holiness in everything we say and do. From our words and promises to our motives, worship, and daily conduct, this sermon calls us to live with integrity so that our lives reflect the God we claim to know. As we walk with God, the Holy Spirit produces spiritual fruit in our lives, making our love for our neighbor a tangible reality.
