A collection of essays edited by Os Guinness and John Seel and published by Moody Press in 1992. As its title says, the contributors identify idols of the modern age that have found their way into the church and argue for breaking with them. It sits beside Guinness's own critiques of evangelicalism's accommodation to modernity in the same years, Dining with the Devil (1993) and Fit Bodies, Fat Minds (1994). The contents are not listed here.
