Greed leads to stealing—even stealing from God. In this powerful continuation of our 10 Commandments series, Rob and Amy Rienow explore the deeper heart issue behind the command, "Do not steal." You'll discover how discontent, entitlement, and everyday compromises can damage relationships and spiritual growth within the home.

With stories from their own family, biblical teaching, and practical parenting insights, Rob and Amy unpack the connection between greed, contentment, and generosity. Learn how to disciple your children away from a culture of "little white stealing" and toward a life of honesty, trust, and stewardship.
