Or........we’re complicit with it? I agree, my family has long ago decided to boycott the culture at large and the next step is to band together with like minded people. I did see that somewhere in the U.S., a church full of people spent Black Friday in the church in prayer and meditation rather than shopping. Believers need to get together on this.

“..people spent Black Friday in the church..”


I think that is a good thing IMHO.

I would say also that we Christians have to live in the world for now, just like Christ did, and when you think about it, he did more manual labor than preaching (three years preaching only).

He set the example, knowing that we would have to live and work here until we get to our true home.

-Hope I didn’t sound to preachy.

“band together with like minded people.”


It would be interesting to know just how much buying power we have as a group. It just seems we could wield influence if we wanted to.
