You Shall Have No Other Gods

We discuss the first of the Ten Commandments, which states that there should be no other gods besides the one true God. We talk about the concept of luck and how it is not something to be trusted in. We invite our friend Anna, a Botanist, to talk about the four-leaf clover and its significance. We also share the story of the Israelites worshiping a golden calf and how God forgave them. We end the episode with a song about God's goodness.
