The Advent lectionary readings today led Broadway pastor Nancy Nichols to preach on "stuff." She read portions of a Leonard Pitts syndicated column published this past week on the topic. Another interesting resource is storyofstuff.com.

I found the Leonard Pitt's column to be very powerful--and the Story of Stuff is an eye opener that flies in the face of the notion that we need to consume stuff in order to be good citizens and make the world a better place.
Ronda,
I agree - somehow along the line we have been told that the power to purchase stuff creates a better world - Its the same idea as using the tax stimulus checks to buy more rather than putting it into savings!
