At a very basic level, the Bible is the story of our continual rejection of God and our passionate embrace and worship of His created order instead. We’d like to boldly proclaim Christ as the center of our worship, but we often exchange fellowship with Him for idols like love, sex, family, money, success, and power.
These idols do indeed satisfy. However, that satisfaction is temporary, fleeting, and fake. Easily lured by the idols of this world, we’re quick to worship that which can never satisfy. Our relationship with God becomes stuck in neutral, idle to true greatness, failing to “press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:14).
