(PEDAL DOWN PROMOTIONS) May 22, 2023 – As a teacher, local government leader and actively practicing Christian, Jacob Immel has gained an intriguing perspective on pursuing an engaged, rewarding and enriching quality of life in today’s fast-paced, technology-driven and increasingly-complicated society.

The Sheboygan Falls, Wis. native has combined elements of his own life experiences and observances, coupled with his own Christian faith beliefs and detailed research to compose a new book titled “What Do You Worship? – A Guide For Combating Idolatry,” which is now available for purchase.

“I have been interested in writing a faith-based book,” Immel said. “I also wanted to write a book that would appeal to a large audience. One day last summer when I was coming home from an event, this idea suddenly hit me. For months and months, I worked diligently on this book. I did a decent amount of research and poured out my heart. The book is a mixture of history, culture and faith.”

Through the release of “What Do You Worship? – A Guide For Combating Idolatry,” Immel aims to help readers in recognizing idols and idolatry, along with how placing too much value on both can impact and, often times, inhibit people’s lives.

“My goal in releasing this book is to inspire people and get people thinking,” Immel said. “I also want to help people on their faith journey. My goal is to help people understand what idols and idolatry are. I also want to help individuals who are dealing with idolatry in their lives.”

Author Jacob Immel of Sheboygan Falls, Wis. has released a new Christian-themed book titled, “What Do You Worship? – A Guide For Combating Idolatry” through Pedal Down Promotions of Manitowoc, Wis.

Written in a workbook style with questions at the end of each section designed to spur interaction and discussion among readers, Immel believes the book has the capability to have broad use and impact among people of varying ages and differing backgrounds.

“I am hoping this book will appeal to people of all ages,” Immel said. “While this book is written for Christians and for those on a faith journey, I am hoping everyone will find something from this book. It is for anyone who is curious and for those who have struggled with idols in their lives. There is a section for children. I am also hoping teachers, coaches and small group leaders will use this book.”

Published by Pedal Down Promotions of Manitowoc, Wis., “What Do You Worship? – A Guide For Combating Idolatry” features 142 pages of analysis and reflection on the various types and forms of idols and idolatry, while sharing relevant Bible verses and Christian-themed teachings and inspirational quotations.

“I have self-published two books, one in 2021 and one in 2022,” Immel said. “One is about communication, and one is about running for political office. This is my first time publishing a book through a publisher.”

Immel, who lives in Sheboygan Falls, Wis. with his wife, Becky, has scheduled a book signing and reading event on Saturday, June 10 at New Life Coffeehouse in Sheboygan, Wis. from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m.
