Bought + Beloved with Kirby Kelly - When Success Becomes an Idol ft. Andrew Root
Description
In this episode, I sit down with Andrew Root to talk about his book Baal and the Gods of More and how the modern church can subtly drift into idolizing success, growth, and productivity over faithfulness to God. We unpack how ancient idolatry still shows up today, not in statues, but in our obsession with “more” and what it looks like to return to a Gospel-centered life and ministry. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to perform, produce, or prove yourself, even in your faith, this conversation will challenge you to slow down, refocus, and rediscover what it truly means to follow Jesus!
