About The End of Greed

The End of Greed is a five part book, multimedia small group bible study and preaching series that will help you and your church grapple with what it means to follow Jesus in a consumer culture. Five sessions explore five themes:

Stuff: Consumerism and Christianity as competing visions of the good life and how we can embrace the way of Jesus.
Generosity: How consumerism militates against generosity and how we can become the extravagantly generous people God calls us to be.
Justice: The ways people in developing countries are exploited making the goods we consume and how we can treat them justly.
Care: The impact consumerism is having on the environment and how we can recover biblical stewardship.
Kindness: The impact of consumerism on animal welfare and how we can live out a biblical response.

HEAR FROM OTHERS

This book is easy to read, highly engaging and extremely practical. But at another level it is a disturbing challenge to us all.

-Michael Frost, Morling College, NSW- Author: Exiles, The Road to Missional, Jesus the Fool

Scott brings to the topic solid Biblical foundations, philosophical sense, harrowing examples and practical solutions...

-Karl Faase, CEO of Olive Tree Media

This is a thoroughly readable book, which is at times a little distressing, as its content challenges and requires response.
