Do people still worship idols today, and what are modern idols in America?

Les explains that Paul’s command in I Corinthians 10:14 is to flee from idolatry. He warns against saying that people today do not worship idols. He imagines that most idols in America sit in the garage—the automobile simply becomes an idol. He also says cattle, gardens, children, grandchildren, business, and job can become idols. Paul’s admonition is to look out and not let something become your idol, but to put the Lord first and foremost. This follows the earlier point that God provides a way of escape from temptation.
