Kenny Stokes (who is filling in as the preaching pastor at Bethlehem Baptist Church while John Piper is taking his leave of absence) preached on 1 Jn. 5:20-21 last Sunday and asked these “13 Questions to Diagnose Your Idolatries:”
- What do you most highly value?
- What do you think about by default?
- What is your highest goal?
- To what or whom are you most committed?
- Who or what do you love the most?
- Who or what do you trust or depend upon the most?
- Who or what do you fear the most?
- Who or what do you hope in and hope for most?
- Who or what do you desire the most? Or, what desire makes you most angry or makes you despair when it is not satisfied?
- Who or what do you most delight in or hold as your greatest joy and treasure?
- Who or what captures your greatest zeal?
- To whom or for what are you most thankful?
- For whom or what great purpose do you work?
