Greed and the accumulation of material possessions are encouraged in our North American context, but they’re not something we like to talk a lot about. Could it be that’s because it sometimes touches a little close to home? Hosts Karin Peter and Blake Smith reflect on a parable where a rich man builds larger barns, only to be reminded of his mortality. The conversation touches on the cultural shift from a "just wants and needs" setup to modern consumerism, emphasizing the challenge of defining "enough." So, how much is enough for you?
