I’ve been thinking about this for the past year or two. Being in South Korea now, another country influenced and rooted in capitalism, I’m learning more and more about the enmeshment of this economic theory and Christianity and trying to understand how to live counter to my culture while not forsaking it altogether. I want to love my culture and the people in it, but I also want to call them to a better way.
I have been chewing on similar thoughts lately...though not as organized and eloquently spoke as in your essay.
My conclusion is that I think a lot of us have confused “influence” for “impact” especially with modern day sosh (what I call social media!).
Thanks for this piece.
