This final week is a chance to step back, take stock of the whole journey, and ask honestly: What has changed, and what still needs to?
Discussion Questions
8 questions1.Looking back across the whole book, which chapter or case study hit closest to home for you — Abraham and Isaac, Jacob and Rachel, the money chapter, success, power, or Jonah? Why do you think that particular one landed so hard?
2.Keller's central thesis is that an idol is any good thing elevated to an ultimate thing. Has that definition changed how you see your everyday life — your schedule, your spending, your emotional reactions, your prayers? Give a specific example.
3.At the beginning of this study, you may have had a fairly surface-level understanding of idolatry (carved statues, explicit paganism). How has that understanding deepened or shifted? What do you now see that you did not see before?
