for myself. Instead of running toward the prize of Christ, I was bumping into the wall of my own reflection. I was treating God and the Bible as if they were all about me, which made my faith small and powerless. I think a lot of us make the same mistake, but we are by no means the first. After combing through Scripture and reflecting on my life, I discovered four different forms of this false, me-centered god: the self-help god, the self-serving god, the self-exalting god, and the self-image god.
