ANSWER: Idols are anything that you make more important than God.

EXPLANATION:

If you make something more important than God, such as money or material possessions, or even religion, it becomes an idol.

Making something into an idol is a sin specified in the 10 Commandments:

"Do not make an idol for yourself, whether in the shape of anything in the heavens above or on the earth below or in the waters under the earth" (Exodus 20:4).
