Read this book. Counterfeit Gods
I just finished reading Counterfeit Gods by Tim Keller a few days ago and would highly recommend it to all believers. Keller uses his cultural understanding of many passages to show us how different people throughout the bible were enslaved to idols, set free by the gospel, and refocused on God. The much needed chapter on love is worth the price of the book. The final chapter reminded me that we are to be disciplined in the basics not out of mere duty, but because spiritual disciplines practiced in faith will help us to joyfully dig deeper into the glorious riches of our God, and in doing so usurp the counterfeit gods that seek to master and destroy us. As this continually happens we can truly love God and others.
