Veronica and Erika slow down and spend the entire podcast discussing Exodus 20:1-11.  Using Dennis Prager’s book as a guide, they show how much the commands are much bigger and more in depth than normally taught.

Questions to Consider:

Why does God give commands?

What are things that can be an idol based on their definition?

How are you doing “carrying” God’s Name as you go about your day?  Are you honoring His name as you carry it?

How do you honor the Sabbath?
