What “Golden Calf” is in your life?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Share with the class something that you hold\u00a0dear that might be considered an idol.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are discussing the power of icons. Do we have idol worship in our lives?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What is the power of images?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/toah\/hd\/icon\/hd_icon.htm<\/span><\/p>\n

Do some research on this, including websites\/articles.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Is our worship of images a good thing?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What part do images play in our secular or religious life?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Do we worship certain images?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Is that a good thing?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Can we appreciate that some would see idol worship as a bad thing?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

What about the Golden Calf in the Bible?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Do we have any Golden Idols in our lives?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Example:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I love food, there are times when I would rather have a good corned beef sandwich in a NYC deli than anything, well almost anything. Is that my golden calf, and am I too centered on food ?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Are Americans wasteful, and do they consume too much of the world’s resources?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe fasting once in a while might prove useful, and teach me something valuable about my relationship with the world.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
