Moments of Hope: Commandment Stacking

Feb 13, 2025    Pastor Andy Searles

You may have heard of "Habit Stacking?" - James Clear popularized it in his book Atomic Habits. The idea is that you build a healthy habit into and on top of a healthy habit. For example - if you are a runner (a healthy habit for your body) and add to that by listening to some spiritual growth podcasts (a healthy habit for your soul), you are stacking one habit on top of another, which dramatically increases your productivity. Did you know the same can be true of trying to follow the commandments God invites us to follow? In the case of the Ten Commandments - if we get the first one right, the other ones become easier to fulfill.
