Do you have an iPod, an iPhone, or the new iPad? Cool and cutting edge technology. I find it interesting that every time Apple introduces a new product it starts with “i.” Ever since our first parents bit the apple and sin entered God’s creation, we are born most interested in “i”—me, myself, and I! As a result we are prone to idolatry—to seek to please ourselves by worshiping money, sex, power, success, and a whole host of other “gods.” Most of the things we worship are really good things in the right context. But whenever a good thing becomes an ultimate thing it is an idol. The only way we can destroy idols in our lives is by replacing them with the only thing that can ultimately destroy their lure and power in our lives—the gospel of grace in Christ Jesus. Lets get honest with ourselves and with God this August at Grace Place during a five-part message series: iSeries.
