Idolatry: Worthless Worship

We’re kicking off 2026 with a topic that is far more relevant (and revealing) than we often realize–Idolatry. We look at why idolatry deserves our attention now, what the Bible actually means by an “idol,” and why it’s about far more than statues made by human hands. We explore how Scripture frames the danger of serving idols, why they can be so hard to spot in our own lives, and how even Christians are not immune. Along the way, we unpack some of the most common cultural idols, get to the root of why our hearts drift toward them, and explain why idolatry is “worthless worship.” Most importantly, we talk about how to combat idolatry—not by simply trying harder, but by allowing God to re‑order our loves—sharing practical next steps and recommended resources.
