The President has faced several controversies during his tenure, but despite them all, many evangelical leaders have come to the President's defense. Some of Trump's evangelical supporters have described him as a changed man and a man of faith. Other leaders have even gone as far as to say that while he may be rough around the edges, we should view him like King David, Cyrus the Great, King Solomon or any other of a number of biblical figures.

But that doesn’t mean I’m immune to idols. The idols that trip me up as a church leader aren’t tangible figures of supposed gods and goddesses. They’re ideas and beliefs that can, if left unchecked, crowd out my worship of the one true God.
Pastor Carey Nieuwhof hits on this idea in a recent article for Charisma News. He transparently lays out the eight idols that commonly impact him in his desire to serve the church:
“John Calvin was dead on when he said, ‘Man's nature, so to speak, is a perpetual factory of idols.’ Discard one, and you'll simply create another…”
