It’s Time To Tear Down Every Idol | Preston Morrison

About this episode

This episode discusses the concept of idolatry in modern life and encourages listeners to identify and tear down the idols that replace God in their hearts.

Not every idol is made of stone. Some are built quietly—in our hearts. In this message, “The Things You Can’t Put Down: It’s Time To Tear Down Every Idol,” we confront a hard truth: anything that takes God’s place in our lives has become an idol. What we chase, protect, and prioritize can slowly replace the One we’re meant to worship. This sermon walks through Scripture to help us recognize the idols we may not even realize we’ve built—and calls us back to full surrender. In this message, you’ll hear about: What an idol really is in today’s life How to recognize if something has taken God’s place in your heart The warning signs of idolatry—what you chase, take, sacrifice for, and boast about Why idols always promise life but lead to destruction The biblical path to tearing down idols for good You’ll also learn how to respond: By confessing what’s taken God’s place Repenting and turning your heart back to Him Renouncing what no longer belongs Replacing idols with true worship Because God isn’t interested in partial devotion— He’s after your whole heart. If there’s something in your life you can’t seem to put down… this message will challenge you to ask: Has it taken God’s place?
