In her chart-topping hit, "ET," Katy Perry sings about longing for the "transcendental, supernatural" love of an alien being. Believe it or not, she's simply expressing a longing that lies deep within all human beings. The problem is that we idolize romantic relationships in a desperate attempt to satisfy that longing, producing devastating results. John 4:1-26 explores the destructive nature of this attractive idol, and how Christ is the "alien being" whose love we really long for and whose power can free us from all our idols.

In our final look at Q & A #1, we will focus our attention on the phrase, "[the Holy Spirit] makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him." What is the goal of the gospel? That we would make much of God, not that he would make much of us.
