Idols of heart

Success, true love, a life of luxury, power and control…

Many of us dream of these things, seeing them as the key to happiness, but deep down in our hearts there is always a suspicion that they may not fulfill our hopes. The recent economic collapse has shed new light on these cherished life goals. In the space of a few months, millions of people have lost their wealth, careers, possessions and happy marriages. It is no wonder that so many of them feel lost, lonely, disappointed and resentful. The truth is that we have turned these good things into gods of our hearts, who, however, are incapable of giving us what we truly need. There is only one God who can fully and truly satisfy

our desires, and now is the best time to meet Him in person again – or for the first time.

In Idols of the Heart, Keller shows us in his signature style how a proper understanding of the Bible exposes the truth about the false ideals that reign in our society and in our hearts. This powerfully referenced book has once again confirmed Keller's reputation as a critical thinker and has come to light at a time when it is most needed—for believers and skeptics alike.
