After a long hiatus on blogging, I am making a new commitment to communicate more on my blog. It has been way too long and I hope my heart and mind can be a benefit for those of you with enough free time to read my rants and thoughts.
This Sunday I shared about the idolatry of the Corinthian church and how idolatry is the root of so many of our problems and separation from God. In helping us identify if we have idols, I listed some great questions that I once heard from Tim Keller and Mark Driscoll. So here you go.
