Idols in the Church | The Sin We Don't Talk About

What exactly are idols? Are they just golden calves from Bible stories—or could they be the people, places, or things we admire a little too much? Could it even be our favorite worship leader or the church itself? In this conversation, we explore the often-overlooked ways idolization can show up within the church. From elevating leaders to placing traditions or ministries above God, we unpack how idols can take many forms—and how to guard against them. Tune in for a thoughtful discussion that challenges us all to reflect on where our true devotion lies. Follow us on IG @anchoredpod Telling the truth in love 🫶🏽🔥
