Christians in a Consumer Culture Found this on Scott's blog. Good stuff: Ways to be Christian in a consumer culture: Live simply Give without expecting return View others as intrinsically significant; view them as important for who they are, not for what they can do or for what they have Slow down Critique bigger-better-faster-more Be skeptical of marketing Be captured by mystery and wonder Think long-term Find fulfillment in relationships and service Create space for silence, stillness, and rest (For the record, try to compile such a list without utilizing economic metaphors like "value" and "worth". That alone should highlight the challenge that we face.)
