The Idol of Creation — Кассета

IDOLS: Uncovering misplaced worship Living in the Yukon means we're surrounded by creation that takes our breath away. This week in our IDOLS series, we're looking at the idol of creation and the warning found in Romans not to trade the Creator for created things. Whether it's the lake, the trapline, the northern lights, or an environmental cause, we can start looking to the land to tell us who we are, keep us safe, and make us feel at home. God calls creation good and asks us to care for it, but He we can drift into misplaced worship of it. It's good to marvel at the mountains, as long as we remember to worship the Maker. Join us this Sunday at Mountainview Church and hear how to enjoy the gift of Creation without losing the Giver, our Creator.
