What do we think typically ruins relationships? Gossip? Anger? Lies? Unfortunately, we don’t often think of covetousness. But we should! God blames covetousness for our conflicts: “You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel” (James 4:2). We take it out on others when we don’t get what we want. “Desire and do not have” is synonymous with “covet and cannot obtain,” and “murder” is synonymous with “quarrels and…fights.” God repeats Himself to drive the point home: covetousness causes conflicts.

Do you know what truly shapes our obedience? Our actions are governed by what we fear. Drawing from the timeless examples of Abraham, the Hebrew midwives, Pharaoh, Saul, and even the religious leaders, we learn that obedience to God flows from a genuine fear of Him—and not from our fear of man. Why? because we obey what we fear.

The Rev RX podcast interviewed me about Abraham and Isaac:
“What if one of the most dramatic stories in the Bible was actually a signpost pointing to something even greater? The story of Abraham and Isaac isn't just about faith- it's a powerful foreshadowing of God's ultimate love through Jesus.
In this episode, I sit down with Pastor and Author Scott LaPierre to explore the Biblical symbolism of Abraham and Isaac, uncovering how this event mirrors God's greatest act of love- the sacrifice of His Son on the cross.
If you've ever wondered how the Old Testament connects to Jesus or needed a fresh reminder of God's deep, sacrificial love for you - this episode is for you!”
