This Sunday we will continue our look at the 10 Commandments and I am wondering what your take is on the 7th commandment, "Don't Steal" and the 8th commandment, "Don't bear false witness against your neighbor." At first glance we could simply say "don't take something that isn't yours" and "don't lie" but do these go further. These two might seem like weaker commandments in comparison to killing and adultery but do we always know how powerful words are and how deep and painful they can be? We may have never "boosted" a car or shoplifted at the mall but have we stolen in other ways? Have we stolen someone's self-esteem or innocence? I would greatly appreciate hearing your thoughts on this one. You can post them here or email me at chermansen@christelca.org, call the church office at 704 366 1595 or track me down on facebook. Thank you in advance for your thoughts.
See you in church,
Chris
