Based on Tim Keller’s book ,”Counterfeit Gods”, this may be Jefferson Bethke’s best work yet.
They say ,”Counterfeit God’s”,may be Tim Keller’s best work yet.
And the two combined make for a powerful video with a strong Christian message.
We all worship something. We are hope based creatures, and all place our hope or happiness in something or someone.
But even the best of us will let you down.
But Jesus never will.
If we pin our hopes or happiness on it, that is a clue it is a counterfeit god.
If we can’t give it up, we don’t own it, it owns us, and is a counterfeit god.
Counterfeit Gods take many forms like jobs, money, possessions, duty,style,sex,drugs, pleasure,ease,companionship, power, accomplishment,even religion.
All other things, if you serve them, will take everything from you.
He is the only God who gave everything for you.
Why not give everything to the only true God who will never betray you?

I can’t watch videos with my connection, but I certainly agree with what is said here. Our God is a giving God who delights to bless His adopted, blood-bouight children.
