Today we explore how the second guideline for abundant living is reflected in the gospel of Mark. This guideline is a warning against idolatry.

Anything, or anyone, can become an idol if we place the value for that thing/person above our value for God.
Scriptures referenced include Exodus 20:4-6; Mark 7:5-6; and Mark 4:18-19.
