This one is for the people reading this who don’t profess a faith in Jesus – I know for a fact that you’re reading this blog too!

What do you worship?

That’s right – you do worship something.

Whether we like it or not, we all worship something or someone. We ALL have a theology that we stand by. Some people get theirs from The Bible – the safest and most steadfast bet, in my humble opinion. But we each have a theology nonetheless. I wonder whether you’ve considered that before? Just because you don’t follow God – with a big G, it doesn’t mean that you don’t worship a god (or gods) with an incredibly little G. The god of money. Or perhaps the god of food…drink…sex…comfort…drugs….porn….greed. There are SO many little gods, it’s almost unbelievable! But it’s true, regardless. Some facts are tough to stomach, but it doesn’t mean they are any less a fact.

So – which gods do you base your theology around? Get rich or die trying? Get laid or die perving? Get ahead or die scrabbling up the ladder? Everyone bases their walk on something and puts their faith in a God and/or god.

Which is yours? You definitely have to decide – one day Jesus will demand that your colours be nailed to the mast, so it’s advisable to get your head around it before you’re put on the spot!
