Elyse Fitzpatrick is one of the best authors you could read today if you want help truly loving Jesus and recognizing the deception of your own sinful heart that so easily leads you away from Him and back to your own patterns of self-destructive sin. Her book, Idols of the Heart was one of the first to help us recognize the sin beneath the sin that so often goes undetected and leaves us confused. Im thrilled that after fifteen years a second edition of this excellent work is now available. Elyse loves Jesus, she loves grace, and she loves helping people experience the freedom of truly loving Jesus with all their heart, and mind, and soul. This book can help you discover what may be keeping you from experiencing the fullness of His love. - Brad Bigney, Author, Gospel Treason The first and greatest commandment says that our relationship with God is a heart, soul, mind, and might matter. God-substitutes, both tangible and figurative, are similarly matters of heart, soul, mind, and might. Such false gods generate the garden-variety sins of irritability, self-pity, escapism, and anxiety, as well as the more extreme sins of anger, despair, addictions, and panic. -David Powlison, Executive Director, The Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation Elyse Fitzpatrick has a very high view of God, and this book reflects that view. With great clarity and intriguing biblical illustrations, Elyse explains how the idols in our hearts compete with our affections for God. In a gentle way, she tells you how by Gods grace to turn from your idols to a wholehearted love for God. -Martha Peace, Biblical Counselor; Author, The Excellent Wife If you are struggling with desires, addictions, and harmful behaviors that seem too strong to overcome, perhaps you are worshipping an idol of the heart. Fitzpatrick explains what those idols might be and how to deal with them in a biblical way. Idols of the Heart is not just another self-help manual. -Ed Bulkley, President, The International Association of Biblical Counselors
