13. Flight & Fight

7. Honor Marriage

If we truly love the Lord, we honor what he has created and given us. Among those gifts is both sex and the marriage covenant in which it belongs. As we reach the seventh commandment, God makes it clear that loving him means not separating these two gifts from one another.

6. Honor Human Life

As humans, we are reflections of God himself, made in his image. We are a testament to his creativity and his sovereignty. Because of this special place we hold in creation, the unlawful destruction of human life is an offense against God himself. This becomes the foundation of the sixth commandment.

God's Heart For the Nations

From cover to cover, you easily find a recurring theme in Scripture - God's love for the nations. Through his people, he desires to see his glory known among every tribe and nation. This week, special guest speaker Vinod Thuraka from Parkway Hills Baptist Church helps us understand how this passion is built into the DNA of the early church.

4. Honor Authority

As we reach the fifth commandment, we shift into what’s known as the “second table” of the Ten Commandments. After explaining what it means to love the Lord, the remaining words unpack how we honor the things he loves. This begins with a call to honor one’s parents, and by extension, authority.

3. Love God's Name

Loving and worshiping God doesn’t just mean worshiping him alone and worshiping him rightly. It means loving and honoring his name. The third commandment reveals why this is so important, and what it means to love his name well.
