4. What Are You Worshipping? Laying Down Our Modern Idols
In this episode of God’s Got It, Molly and Jenn explore the idea of modern idolatry—not in the ancient sense of golden calves or false gods, but in the subtle, everyday ways we place things before God without realizing it.
Together, they unpack how social media, cell phones, busyness, money, comparison, hustle culture, and self-reliance can quietly become false idols—especially in a dopamine-driven, productivity-obsessed world. This conversation isn’t rooted in shame or judgment, but in curiosity, compassion, and awareness.
You’ll hear honest reflections on:
- How social media vanity metrics can distort our sense of worth
- Why phones and constant stimulation pull us out of presence—and out of relationship with God
- How busyness and hustle culture become spiritual strongholds
- The emptiness of chasing success, money, and achievement for fulfillment
- Why stillness, silence, and surrender are necessary to hear God’s voice
- How comparison and control separate us from peace
- The role of the body and nervous system in revealing where idols live
- Practical ways to notice when something has taken God’s place
- How God uses strongholds to draw us back into trust and dependence on Him
If you’ve ever felt exhausted, restless, disconnected, or caught in cycles of striving, this episode offers a grounded, compassionate invitation back to presence, faith, and surrender.
