Overview

Our lives revolve around our deepest needs and greatest treasures. Relationships. Family. Financial security. Private hopes and dreams.

Most of our desires are healthy. Yet these longings can become passions we not only pursue, but worship. And while idol worship may seem like ancient history, we still face the modern-day equivalent [version], as natural needs slowly consume our hearts and minds, competing with God’s rightful place in our lives.

No Other gods offers a revealing look at the heart of a woman. Author Kelly Minter explores what happens when good desires become false gods, robbing us of an intimate relationship with our heavenly father.

So discover the freedom in surrender. The healing in worship. And the joy found in exchanging everyday gods for the one true God.

Finer Day.

    Great Bible Study - Challenging and Thought Provoking

    I have found that many Bible studies unfortunately are watered down and ask basic regurgitated QA. This is not the case with Minter's book. It really challenged me to think about the things that I treasure more than God....what is in competition for my time and devotion.
    Her definition of idol is "something other than God that we set our heart on, that motivates us, masters and rules us, or that we trust or serve." If you really want to be challenged to make God first in your life, this is the study for you.

    Didn't care for this book. It was really not specific enough for me for today's 'gods' as to what or who they are.
