In this episode of the EFOPOD, Greg and Michael Karel dive into a question we all wrestle with, consciously or not: What (or who) do we worship in our lives? They explore how modern culture can easily turn things like sports, success, and self-image into idols that compete for our attention and devotion, taking us further from the call to "worship God alone" (Matthew 6, Matthew 22:37).

In this episode of the EFOPOD, Greg and Michael Karel tackle a question that everyone asks at some point: “Is someone or something really in control of everything?” They explore the concept of God’s sovereignty—what it means for God to be in control of all things—and why this idea matters in our everyday lives.
