Bear w/ Me: Vanessa & Andy Discuss The Great Disconnect and Spiritual Consumerism
Vanessa and Andy reflect on "The Great Disconnect", a locally produced documentary on community life in our neighbourhoods. We also tackle "Spiritual Consumerism" that threatens to subvert the Gospel's work in our lives.
1. The Great Disconnect (0:38)
We respond to a documentary that explores how surprisingly isolated we are in our neighbourhoods and how our happiness and sense of meaning in life is related to our interdependence and relation to others.
2. Spiritual Consumerism (23:16)
We have a tendency towards consumerism that can infect our spiritual lives. We want to guard against this in our lives and on our show
