Thursday Week 4 of Lent April 3, 2025
Exodus: The Israelites made and then worshiped a golden calf. A glittering statue. We scoff at that thinking “how could they do that?” So easily. Golden idols abound. Believe the lies because it is easier than finding the real truth. Follow a charismatic flim-flam man because he tells you what you want to hear. Allow others to be neglected because you are safe and warm and don’t want your cushy lifestyle to change. It is easy to turn away from the truth—all too easy.
