Download An Other Kingdom: Departing the Consumer Culture AudioBook Free
Our seduction into values in competition, scarcity, and acquisition are producing way too many casualties. We have to depart a kingdom that creates isolation, polarized argument, an exhausted globe, and violence that is included with the will to empire. The abbreviation of this empire is named a consumer culture. We think the free market ideology that surrounds us is true and inevitable and represents progress. We live called to better adapt, become more agile, more lean, more schooled, more, more, more. Give it up. There is absolutely no such thing as customer satisfaction. We need a new narrative, a shift inside our thinking and speaking. An Other Kingdom requires us out of any culture of addictive utilization into a place where life is ours to produce together. This gratifying way depends upon a neighborly covenant - an agreement that we along will better increase our children, be healthy, be connected, be safe, and provide a livelihood. The neighborly covenant has some other dialect than market-hype. It talks instead in a sacred tongue. Creators Peter Block, Walter Brueggemann, and John McKnight ask you on the trip of departure from our consumer market culture, with its constellations of empire and control. Discover an alternative solution set of values that have the capacity to evoke a culture where poverty, violence, and shrinking well-being are not inevitable - a culture in which the cultural order produces enough for any. They ask you to think about this other kingdom. To take part in this modern exodus towards a modern community. To awaken its beginnings are all all around us. An Other Kingdom outlines this trip to construct a future beyond your systems world of alternatives.
