Most of us don’t have golden statues sitting in our living rooms, but that doesn’t mean idols aren’t a struggle for us. I know there are times when comfort, control, approval, or success can quietly compete for first place in my heart.
Looking at the Ten Commandments through that lens helps me see that God isn’t after rules for the sake of rules, He wants a relationship built on trust.
