#988: American Idol

Are you an idol worshiper?While most Americans don’t worship carved statues, idol worship is still prevalent in our society. We idolize things like money, possessions, and jobs … and people like actors, athletes, musicians, and even members of our own families.A biblical definition of an idol is anything or anyone we value more than God or worshiping someone or something other than God as though it were God.In the first of his ten commandments, God said, “You shall have no other gods before me.” He is a “jealous” God and will not share his glory with anyone or anything.What idols do you need to get rid of? Ask God to help you completely tear them down today. And teach your son the rightful way to value wisdom, talent, conviction, and courage in others without making an idol of them.For more information about a Proven Process that is helping boys grow into godly men, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
