The Heart's Hidden Motives: Surface vs. Source Idols

What do you worship? What absorbs your heart and imagination to the point that life would hardly be worth living without it? Idols are anything that take the place of God in our lives; and they arise out of a belief that God is not enough and that something about his character is not trustworthy. In this episode we explore the realities of surface and source idols and how they cause chaos in our lives.Topics discussed in this episode:Something about us that is often misinterpreted by othersThe Iceberg and our core motivation and longingsSurface and Source IdolsThe connection between core motivation and idolsIdols can actually be made from  GOOD things in our livesWhat happens when idols are the destination of our misplaced motivationThe source idols of Power, Approval, Comfort, and ControlLectio Divina - Psalm 62: 5-8Guided settlingGuided listeningResources mentioned in this episode:Our one-year journey for men and womenThis podcast is an offering of Seek Well.
