Book Reviews of American Idols: The Worship of the American Dream
Book Review: Good topic gone terribly wrong
Summary: 1 Stars
I read this book for a recent church campaign and the more I read the more I really didn't like it. The author isn't a good writer and he takes things to the wrong extreme. The only thing of value I took from reading this when he referenced someone else talking about needing a Paul, Timothy and Barnabas in your life.
Summary of American Idols: The Worship of the American Dream
Although not inherently corrupt, the American Idol television program has magnified a culture preoccupied with fleeting fame and image overload. Feeding off that frenzy, American Idols takes a necessary look at the false gods in modern society. The golden calf of Bible times may be gone, but in its place today are enslavements to consumerism, celebrity, sexual freedom, easy religion, and more. This timely book helps readers realize and overcome their own idolatries.General Books
