Before God gave Israel a nation…
Before He gave them laws…
Before He gave them a promised land…
He gave them a relationship.
The First Commandment is not simply about worship.
It is about allegiance.
It is about deciding who sits upon the throne of your heart.
In a world filled with distractions, false identities, modern idols and competing voices, God still speaks the same words He spoke thousands of years ago: “I am the Lord your God.”
This powerful episode explores why the First Commandment remains as relevant today as it was at Mount Sinai.
“You shall have no other gods before me.”
Exodus 20:3
Through biblical teaching, practical application and honest discussion, Reverend Ben Cooper and Simon Pinchbeck examine how modern believers can recognise hidden idols and place Christ firmly at the centre of their lives.
