In a culture that constantly demands our attention, allegiance, and worship — we are called to stand firm for God's kingdom. Attack on Idols takes us deep into Daniel’s story to help identify and destroy the idols we face: Conforming, image, comfort, pride, control, fear, success, and even self. When everyone else bows, we stand.

Attack On Idols- Spiritual Apathy

Spiritual apathy is one of the most dangerous idols—it lulls us to sleep while a real war rages on for souls. Daniel’s visions remind us the enemy is real, the battle is fierce, and the King is coming. Don’t settle for casual Christianity. Wake up, fight back with prayer and God’s Word, and live ready for Jesus’ return. Our final week in our series Attack On Idols we battle the idol of Spiritual Apathy.

Attack On Idols- Fear

We all battle fear—fear of people, problems, and pain. Like Daniel in the lions’ den, fear can become an idol if it masters us. But the answer isn’t avoiding fear, it’s kneeling before the Lion of Judah. Week 6 of our series Attack On Idols, we see that when we put faith in Him, fear loses its grip. Jesus is enough, and His presence is greater than any fear we face.

Attack On Idols- Excess

We live in a culture of “too much”—too much wine, wealth, pleasure, and distraction. But like King Belshazzar in Daniel 5, excess only leaves us empty. God calls us to weigh what matters and trade the idol of excess for the essential: Jesus. In Him, we find the only life that truly satisfies. Week 5 of our series Attack On Idols we dive into this concept and learn how to combat the idol of excess.

Attack On Idols- Pride

Week 4 of Attack on Idols we are in Daniel 4, where we look at how Nebuchadnezzar’s pride led to his fall, but his humility led to restoration. Pride resists correction, hoards credit, and forgets God’s role in success. God will humble what we refuse to surrender. Attack pride by practicing humility — receive feedback, share credit with others, and give all glory to God (Philippians 2:3–4).

Attack On Idols- Image

Nebuchadnezzar demanded worship of his golden image, but three young men stood tall instead of bowing. In our culture, we face the temptation to bow to the idol of image — chasing likes, filters, and approval. Your value is not determined by social media or public perception but by the image of God you carry (Ephesians 2:10). Attack the idol of image by living authentically and standing with the image of Christ.

Attack On Idols - Control

King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream revealed the fragility of earthly kingdoms and the unstoppable power of God’s eternal kingdom. Control is an idol we often hold tightly — over money, careers, and decisions — but true peace comes from surrender. Week 2 we learn how to attack the idol of control by trusting God with every area of life and acknowledging Him as the King of kings.

Attack On Idols- Conformity

In the opening week of Attack on Idols, we explore how Daniel and his friends resisted Babylon’s pressure to conform. They were given new names, new food, and new training — but they refused to forget who God had called them to be. Culture will always try to rename and reshape us, but we are called to stand firm in our God-given identity (Romans 12:2). Attack the idol of conformity by refusing to bow to culture’s definitions. Reclaim your true identity as a child of God.
