What Do You Turn Your Hand To? – Adam Dyer

What Do You Turn Your Hand To?

What if “don’t steal” wasn’t just about taking things—but about how we live, work, and treat others every day?

In this message, we explore one of the Ten Commandments in a way that goes far deeper than we might expect. Rather than focusing only on obvious acts of theft, this talk uncovers the quiet ways we can take more than we give—through our work, relationships, habits, and even our attention. It challenges us to consider not just what we avoid, but what we actively bring into the world.

At the heart of this message is a simple but powerful shift: we’re not created to take—we’re created to give. When we live disconnected from others, we drift toward self‑interest. But when we reconnect with God’s way of living, our hands become tools for generosity, creativity, and blessing.

This isn’t just about stopping harmful behaviour—it’s about becoming people who bring life.

Key themes:

• Why stealing goes deeper than just possessions
• How disconnection leads us to take rather than give
• Identifying hidden ways we may “steal” in everyday life
• Repurposing our lives toward generosity and blessing

Where might God be inviting you to turn your hands toward something life‑giving?
