Renowned in the blogosphere as the Anchoress and as Catholic Portal editor of the popular Patheos.com, Elizabeth Scalia offers a powerful critique of the “gods” we worship today, reminding readers that life’s deepest desires can only be satisfied in Christ. Scalia points to the incarnation of Christ and authentic worship of him as a way out of idolatry and into peace, happiness, and love.
