Idol Identification

Addressing the cause of marital conflicts this morning at MercyHill. As always, we will be considering heart issues.

Ken Sande has given these questions to be used as tools to examine our hearts for idols. I have found them helpful. Maybe you will as well.

What am I preoccupied with? What is the first thing on my mind in the morning and the last thing at night?
If only I had ______ I would truly be happy.
What do I want to preserve or avoid?
What do I fear?
Where do I put my trust?
When a certain desire is not met I feel frustration, anxiety, resentment, bitterness, anger, or depression?
Is there something I desire so much that I am willing to disappoint or hurt others in order to have it?
