Give stories. If we hate it, why do we do it? Developing a willingness to say No. Santa says good kids get gifts; if you don’t, you’re bad. Distributing alternative ideas outside a mall on Buy Nothing Day. Buy things that last and at Thrift Shops (Tony’s $6 suit). Simple ≠ ugly; attractive home ≠ expensive. Emil Durkheim: importance of family rituals; eat together, stay together; share values at meals. Rituals create a sense of security, well-being, belonging.

TOPICS

PART 6: Social Justice; creating jobs that do things we believe it. Post-oil economy, using restaurant grease, running off the waste of society, creating biodiesel co-op for recovering addicts. Graduate program creating small businesses, e.g., sandals from old tires. Bono at the National Prayer Breakfast: government, give more to help the poor; security doesn’t come through the military. Cancel Third-World debt. Farm subsidies hurt indigenous farmers abroad – anti-capitalistic without an even playing field! U.S. is arming the world. Are we Christian? Ask the poor. Ask colleges questions about values, not selfish questions. A Jubilee celebration on Wall St. with the homeless holds up an alternative. We need dreams and visions beyond consumerism. Weddings: socially conscious rings are made with dignity, not blood diamonds. Hollywood is speaking out more than the church. Prom for senior citizens. Extravagances of Christmas. 25/6=2758759

TOPICS

EPISODE 5: Tithing (from Exodus) – 1/10th given for a party – celebration for all, a foretaste of the heavenly banquet; 9/10th’s used wisely in accordance with God’s will! The Simple Way’s block party – a redistribution, as the Jubilee; in the relational tithe, 10% decided by the group to meet neighborhood needs. Church embezzlement when only 2-3% given outside its walls. Tony’s book: The Kingdom of God Is a Party. In the Eucharist the bread (food of the poor) and wine (food of the rich) come together — enough for everyone’s needs, not greed. EAPE’s beyond borders group urged to buy supplies and pay workers, not build for the Haitians; instead, spend time with them, which is unsettling, humbling and ultimately gratifying. St. Francis — jester of God — knew how to party, invented the marionette. The poor are sacramental, meet Jesus in them, here or overseas. Matt. 25 is about interactions (interruptions), not charity. Charity insulates us; church becomes a broker, not a community. Positive examples: hugging a bum, ice cream in Calcutta — it’s too good to keep to myself!

LITERACY

Intro

Simple Living is a comprehensive way of living. It’s so much more than its stereotype of growing a few tomatoes and wearing our favorite old clothes!

This service contains books (paper, eBooks, audio), video (DVD, internet), audio (CD, MP3), blogs, podcasts, sites.

These are quite current resources. For classic resources, visit Study/Activity/Action Guides.

Mildly interesting historical note: For most of its 40 years of service Alternatives offered a Book Service. From 1995-2008, Alternatives published and distributed a modest quarterly Resource Guide, i.e. sales catalog. I reviewed hundreds of resources to find the ones ideal for our audience. Since August, 2010, I have continued to review resources, most of which I recommend to my local public library and they add to their collection. I have interacted with each of these titles and sources.

SLW! does not sell anything, but we recommend resources from other sources and publishers, which we urge you to get from your public library or your local, independent bookstore. For help locating a local source, visit IndieBound.org. Some are free on the internet. Most of the links take you to my previews.
