Joe Paprocki Ten Commandments, Sin, & Morality

Pop-Up Catechesis with Joe Paprocki

The Seventh Commandment teaches us that we need to share the abundance of God’s creation. We are called to respect what belongs to others and to be satisfied with what we have for ourselves, knowing that most of us have more than we will ever really need in this life. The Seventh Commandment, “You shall not steal,” reminds us to thank God for what we have, to share what we have with others, and to respect what belongs to others. In this episode of Pop-Up Catechesis, we explore the Seventh Commandment and our call to share God’s abundance with others.
