Idolatry seems like a pretty simple concept in the Bible, right? Don't bow down to golden statues? Check! Don't worship false gods at their altars? Check! But believe it or not, idolatry is still alive and well! And it's so well disguised that we often don't even realize we're participating in it. So what does modern day idolatry look like?

When we dislike or judge a behavior, it brings up feelings of irritation and embarrassment in us. And when we feel irritated, how do we react? By snapping at others, sighing, rolling our eyes, or at the very least pulling away from the interaction. In turn, the other person (whether child, teen, or adult) feels hurt and confused! How do we remedy this behavior within ourselves? Let's discuss it in this episode. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022. Visit acast.com/privacy for more information.

Shame plays off our natural hardwiring for connection. It has us mistakenly believe our flaws make us undeserving of acceptance and belonging, therefore driving us to feel not just alone, but helplessly isolated. And when we feel helpless, we often become reactive, seeking any kind of reprieve from such pain. We end up acting out in desperate ways that don't feel like the real us. Ways that can add fuel to the shame fire. Simply put, when we feel shame, we feel awful. The good news? Most research suggests that shame is a universal experience (though different things feel shameful to different people). In other words, we're ironically kind of all together in our feelings of unworthiness and fear of disconnection. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
