Intersection TV: The Most Common Sin

Spectrum Staff | July 22, 2009

Does it seem that we live in a word that wants us to BUY! BUY! BUY!? How as Christians do we reconcile this life of consumerism with a Biblical example of “living simply.” Our panel for “Christians in a Consumer World” talks about the problem of greed. Also they give basic principles for us to follow and practical advice on how to live simply.

Featured Panelists: Chris Blake: professor of English and communication, Union College; Kendra Haloviak: assistant professor of religion, La Sierra University; Cindy Tusche: associate director, White Estate
