TOPICS
The Show Notes are the same for each episode, though the topics are different.Prequal-Ep.3: The Saga of 'Simply Enough'
PART 1-Ep.20: St. Francis and clothes; the Bible and lifestyle (Mark 10); discipleship, hospitality, freedom, marriage and sex; alternative health insurance: Christian Health Care Ministries; speaking and travel, carbon footprint fast, home stays and Tony's jacket
PART 2-Ep.21: Moving in the direction of a Christian lifestyle (Philippians 3:13-14); the continuum of radicalism and travel; rescued food; EAPE; Shane's book--The Irresistible Revolution; responding to the needs of poorer churches; redistribution of speaking fees through The Simple Way community and $1 bills; Alternatives to Military Service; newly marrieds deciding their lifestyle permanently and then giving away any surplus; churches giving building funds dollar-for-dollar for water projects and scholarships
PART 3-Ep.22: Urban farming / guerilla gardening; recovering from Tony's stroke; our meat problem; integrity in farming; dangers of piety; In what way am I living economically a lifestyle as Jesus wants me to live? The lesson of Ananius and Sapphira - pretense; being close to the poor; First John 3:16; redistribution in love; free enterprise, not capitalism - meeting needs, not manufactured wants; manipulated by advertising; Who owns the pond? Stories from sweatshop kids; Where do we shop? Paul's wrestling with 'principalities and powers' (forces of evil) in church (Ephesians 6:12)
PART 4-Ep.23: Advertising continued - Cornel West and stealing sneakers, seduction of everyone; selling counter-culture; Amish peculiarness; Willow Creek - living out a concern for poor and oppressed; sharing shoes, as learned from Mother Theresa; rich folks don't KNOW poor folks; so little time to talk to our kids; problems of the American Dream; impossibility of loving global neighbors as self; Rev. 15: Babylon consumer culture collapses, contrast of merchants and angels; use of sexual imagery; toward a new society; Papa Fest - People Against Poverty and Apathy - gathering with theological and hands-on workshops
PART 5-Ep.24: 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!
PART 6-Ep.25: 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.
PART 7-Ep.26: The three gifts at Jesus' birth urge give-away's; manure helps focus on the way Jesus was born, not decorations; non-material gifts or hand-made gifts, such as tree ornaments and their memories, counter gift-giving obscenity. 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 is not ugly; an attractive home is not expensive. Emil Durkheim: importance of family rituals; eat together, stay together; share values at meals. Rituals create a sense of security, well-being, belonging.
PART 8-Ep.27: Feeding people at The Simple Way - an open table was against zoning regulations. Practice Sabbath with a day of rest. TSW annual calendar is not the same as the secular American calendar. Every three months TSW has a love feast, a big dinner with communion that moves. We've made the church boring; it needs to be crazy and fun, not sad and sacrificial. Stories from Shane's Irresistible Revolution include Shane occupying a political convention and being arrested for feeding the homeless in Love Park wearing his 'Jesus was homeless' shirt. Tony's Letters to a Young Evangelical. Tony got arrested reading Is. 10 at the Capitol over the welfare bill. In Scotland a young politician handled the investment for the Parliament's retirement portfolio to leverage investments for justice.
