You're surrounded by desire generators — feeds, ads, algorithms, comparison. But coveting isn't just a problem with wanting too much. It's a worship problem.

In this final message of our Ten Commandments series, Pastor David opens Exodus 20:17 to show that desire itself is a gift from God - but unchecked, it rewrites history, undermines relationships, and leads us straight back to the garden where everything went wrong.

What we keep trying to take, God has already given us in Christ.

In this message:

• Why desire isn't the problem - how it's ordered is
• The pattern from Eden to Achan: See → Desire → Take
• How Jesus reorders what we want
• The Magnet, Compass, Map, and Guide - a framework for ordering desire
• Why the Lord's Table is the answer to covetousness

Scripture: Exodus 20:17 | Genesis 1–3 | Philippians 2:6–8 | Romans 8:32
