What happens when good things become ultimate things? In the end, they starve, enslave, and divide us. Human emptiness is a God-shaped void, even in the lives of notorious people like Michael Jordan. And, unfortunately, the last place we usually go to solve our pressing problems is to God, via the Scriptures, in the person of Jesus Christ. Bottom line, we would rather live in our disordered loves than seek real, satisfying answers. We are all worshipers, whether of good things, of ourselves, of evil impulses, or of God.
