Youth Culture Today with Walt Mueller

Kids and Self-Worship


Listen Later

Biola University theology professor Thaddeus J. Williams has written a great book on living in today’s culture titled, “Don’t Follow Your Heart: Boldly Breaking The Ten Commandments of Self-Worship.” Williams enlightens readers, young and old, on how to identify the cultural lies we so easily believe, all of which are cultural lies that point us in the direction of worshipping and serving ourselves, rather than worshipping and serving God. Share these timely words from Williams with your kids: “ The more you worship yourself, the less you become your self. You become a shadow, a specter, and unself. The longer and deeper you stare into the mirror, looking for answers, the more it will feel like looking at Edvard Munch’s “the Scream.” This is the strange paradox of self-worship. Why? It’s simple.
