Shut it down | the idolatry of emotions, opinions & experiences
March 30, 2025 • Pastor Tanya Samuel
scripture
Exodus 20:1-6 (ESV) – “And God spoke all these words, saying, “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. “You shall have no other gods before me. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.”

No More Compromise
What’s ruling you—your faith or your feelings?
This week, we’re calling out the idols we didn’t even realize we worshipped: our emotions, our opinions, and our experiences.
When emotions drive decisions, when opinions override obedience, when experiences rewrite our view of God—we’ve built idols in our hearts.
But it’s time to SHUT IT DOWN.
God is still good. He’s still in control. And He still deserves to be FIRST.
Join us for week 5 and the final installment of this series as we confront the subtle idols that are stealing God’s place in our lives.
