33 - The First Commandment
from Crash Course Catholicism Hosted by Dr Caitlin West
"I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery; you shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above or that is on the earth beneath or that is in the water under the earth.” What does it mean to love and serve God? What counts as 'other gods'? Are images of Jesus, Mary, and the saints graven images? In this episode we discuss the first of the Ten Commandments. This episode covers Part Three, Section Two, Chapter One, Article One of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (pts 2056 -2141).
