How Much Is Enough? (9 of 10)
Series: Taking Control of Your Life
M. Kenneth Lyon
Exodus 20:17
Well, at last, here we are on number 10. Started out at number 1. We've gone through all the Commandments. We're on the last step... at least we'd like to think so! But did you know there's an 11th Commandment? It's over in the NT. It's called the bottom line commandment.
