In this week's episode I discuss the connection between idols and morals. Idolatry may seem like an outdated concept to many, but we all have idols that can take the place of God in our lives. I talk about modern day idols and the morality that is born out of following them. I speak about why idolatry is seen as one of the worse sins and how it is linked to modern New Age practices.
