Faith in the Age of More | The Branch
from The Branch · host The Tree Church
In a culture where “more” often feels like the default setting, what does it mean for followers of Jesus to live with enough? In this conversation, we explore the subtle and not-so-subtle ways consumerism shapes our faith, our ethics, and even our worship. We’ll discuss practical choices—from how we shop to how we scroll to how we eat—and wrestle with the tension between enjoying God’s blessings and being mastered by them. Along the way, we’ll look at the roles of gratitude, contentment, and discernment, and why defining “right practice” in this area is far from simple.
