The gods must be crazy
from The Olive Branch Markham • Audio Podcast · host The Olive Branch Church
We aren’t the first people to find ourselves in a world of upheaval, where in less than a year everything we know, and have become accustomed to, gets flipped on its back. The same thing happened 3,500 years ago when God showed up and surprised a group of slaves and slavedrivers—judged everything that seemed normal—and offered freedom to both the slaves and the slavedrivers, and He did it by making life uncomfortable; the future uncertain for them both. And when He did, the little ‘g’ gods were never the same. The tragedy is that both groups—in different senses—ultimately went back to serving them. God’s message to all people, everywhere—is, “You will serve someone or something! Choose carefully, because your choice will radically shape both your life and your eternity!"
