The Genesis Project

We celebrated 4 years of The Genesis Project Slidell & we wrapped up 10=2 with a final message on the 10th commandment!

The truth. It can be a tricky thing in our time. But one thing is abundantly clear in the pages of Scripture: God wants us to handle it responsibly. Whether in a court of law, the court of public opinion, or at the dinner table with family and friends, love speaks the truth.

Theft. It's as much an issue today as it was thousands of years ago. What's the antidote to the driving force behind it?

Adultery. It destroys marriages and it destroys people. But, Jesus took the concept way beyond the obvious acts, and challenged us at the heart level.

This week we look at murder, and the way Jesus challenges us to rethink this commandment, applying it beyond the external, to the internal.

Honor and respect. They're something we feel is earned, and given to those who earn it. In this week's message, we look at the command to honor our parents from a different perspective.

Rest. We all want it, but we're not always sure how to get there. Interestingly, God knew we'd need it, and laid out a plan for how we can get there.

What makes a name significant? Why would God prohibit the misuse of His name? What does that even mean, and how does love fulfill this commandment?

Dad...you're irreplaceable, and you need to know that! (Plus...we've hooked you up with some GREAT dad jokes!)

Idolatry. It's looking to a created thing to do or provide what only God can. The New Testament takes it beyond bowing down to statues, or following other gods, and even implies that in our modern world, we're still capable of it.
