Drifting From God: The Subtle Attraction of Idolatry

This message takes an honest look at the subtle, often unnoticed ways we drift away from God, and what drives that drift in the first place. Drawing from the repeated failures of ancient Israel, we explore how idolatry, the practice of turning to godlike replacements when we feel God is not enough, is not just an ancient problem. It is alive and well in our modern lives, dressed up as comfort-seeking, the craving for control, the pursuit of money, and the hunger for approval. We are invited to examine honestly what absorbs our hearts and imaginations more than God, and to consider whether the things we turn to for security and meaning truly deliver what only God can provide.
