“Little children, keep yourselves from idols.” (1 John 5:21)

“We may not physically kneel before the statue of Aphrodite, but many young women today are driven into depression and eating disorders by an obsessive concern over their body image. We may not actually burn incense to Artemis, but when money and career are raised to cosmic proportions, we perform a kind of child sacrifice, neglecting family and community to achieve a higher place in business and gain more wealth and prestige.”  Tim Keller, Counterfeit Gods
“Little children, keep yourselves from idols.” (1 John 5:21 ESV)
