Free Indeed: Rediscovering True Freedom from Idolatry in Love and Life

This insightful exploration dives into the nature of idolatry, highlighting how misplaced love for concepts such as success, relationships, and material possessions can enslave us. Influenced by John Calvin and Tim Keller, we understand that our hearts often deify good things, seeking fulfillment from them instead of God. However, true freedom is attainable through Jesus, who liberates us from these idols. By identifying and feeding our genuine needs rather than the false gods we create, we can experience true happiness and love that is rooted in freedom.
