"Me? Have a problem with idols? You've got to be kidding! That's just something that was practiced by people in ancient religions who weren't as well educated as we are today...right?" If this was your first thought, you couldn't be more wrong! The problem of idols and idolatry is not an outdated practice of extinct religions; it's actually alive and flourishing today in our "modern" society.

"Me? Have a problem with idols? You've got to be kidding! That's just something that was practiced by people in ancient religions who weren't as well educated as we are today...right?" If this was your first thought, you couldn't be more wrong! The problem of idols and idolatry is not an outdated practice of extinct religions; it's actually alive and flourishing today in our "modern" society. True, our current idols aren't typically made of wood, stone, or gold. That's because idolatry is simply the act of loving and worshipping something or someone more than the one person who actually deserves it - God Himself. So by this definition, we can turn anything or anyone into our personal idol -and we will suffer for it! Most people, even Christians, who practice idolatry aren't even aware of it, but here they are suffering spiritually, emotionally, and even physically but can't seem to connect the dots between misery and the practice of idolatry. This study guide was developed to help people find out if idolatry is a bigger problem than you realized. It was put together to help you - and maybe a group of your friends - get real and get honest with each other and with God. This guide was designed to complement the book, Too Many Lovers and to go deeper into God's truth together. It's an opportunity to discover the freedom you've only dreamed of! This study guide is packed with information, examples, challenging questions, practical steps, and personal application to move you from bondage into personal healing!

Autorenporträt
Paul was born in the Midwest. After his father completed his medical training, the family eventually settled in the Seattle area. He comes from a large family, and life as a young boy was an exciting one with siblings and friends.He earned a bachelor's degree in English Literature from the University of Washington in Seattle, which he put on hold for two years while serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Germany.Shortly after returning to Seattle from Germany, he met a beautiful young woman driving a bright yellow VW bug. She agreed to spend life with him. He and Susan are blessed with six children and thirteen grandchildren, and another on the way.Their lives have taken some twists and turns. Along the way, he served seven years in the US Army, lastly as an officer in Military Intelligence. Following the Army, he earned an MBA from the Thunderbird School of Global Management, the internationally recognized business school in Phoenix, Arizona.He spent most of his business career engaged in commercial real estate investments working for various firms such as private equity, a pension fund, and an international bank. He traveled too frequently during his career assisting clients with a heavy domestic and international schedule, often traveling over 100 nights a year.He has written extensively to family and close friends, discussing the challenges we encounter through those twists and turns along the path. A core principle in his writing is the role faith plays in dealing with challenges and that this life is a preparatory state for an eternal one. Different parties have guided him through periods of discouragement. He writes to assist others through similar trials. Several friends and associates have encouraged him to publish to a larger audience. Mark and Me is his first effort. Additional offerings are coming soon.
