Description
Christianity offers a unique perspective on consumerism, one that can help us resist its alluring narratives and instead live for something greater. In 'Buying God', Eve Poole explores how the Church's traditions of Social Liturgy can inform our approach to this complex issue.
The book draws on theology, capitalism, and consumerism to offer a practical framework for living out our faith in a world dominated by materialism. By examining how we can shift our focus from the temporal to the eternal, Poole provides a compelling vision for a more redemptive form of consumption.
Through a combination of theoretical work and practical action, 'Buying God' invites readers to join the conversation about consumerism and its impact on society. This thought-provoking book is an important contribution to the debate, one that challenges us to rethink our relationship with money and material possessions.
