Counsumerism

How do you fight against consumerism
•Giving – time, treasure, talents, touch.
   When you give you take the spotlight off you
    Consumerism is all about you.
•Buy things for their usefulness rather than their status.
•Reject anything that is producing an addiction in you.
•Learn to enjoy things without owning them.
•Develop a deeper appreciation for the creation.
•Look with a healthy skepticism at all “buy now, pay later” schemes.
•Reject anything that breeds the oppression of others.
•Shun anything that distracts you from seeking first the kingdom of God.
