The issue of idolatry has been with the human race for thousands of
years; the subtle temptation is always to take what is good and
turn it into the ultimate good, elevating it above all other things
in the search for security and meaning. In this timely and
challenging book, New York pastor Timothy Keller uses classic Bible
stories to look at the issue of idolatry - from the worship of
actual idols in the Old Testament, to the idolatry of money by the
rich young ruler when he was challenged by Jesus to give up all his
wealth. Keller cuts through our dependence on the glittering false
idols of money, sex and power to uncover the path towards trust in
the real ultimate - God. Today's idols may look different from
those of the Old Testament, but Keller argues that they are no less
damaging. Culturally transforming as well as biblically based,
COUNTERFEIT GODS is a powerful look at the temptation to worship
what can only disappoint, and is a vital message in today's current
climate of financial and social difficulty.
