CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw that the city was full of idols.” (Acts 17:16)
While Athens was filled with visible idols, our culture is filled with idols too; though, they may be less visible. These idols expose stories that shape us and the culture we live in. Paul’s example in Acts 17 is to observe the idols of his day, but then to confront the stories underneath with the story of Jesus.
For example, a modern-day idol is power. We strive to climb the ladder, celebrating success and achievement. But the story of Jesus is one in which He didn’t hoard power, but gave it away. The trajectory for a follower of Jesus is a downward trajectory, giving away power to love and serve others.
Pay attention. Then lovingly confront the idols of our day with the powerful message of Jesus.
MOLESKIN:
