| SHORT-CHANGING OURSELVES Advertisers like to call us "consumers", because we consume the products they're trying to sell us. But sometimes it feels like we're not consuming at all but that we're being consumed by the things we desire and own! Holidays, mobiles, trainers, fizzy drinks, cars, clothes and DVDs... how can we keep our head above the rising tide of products and possessions, and keep our eyes on the people and values that are truly important in our lives? This website has some resources you might find helpful... Pay a visit to our Post a Prayer page, where you can light a virtual candle and leave requests for others to pray for you. Read interviews with people who have found a down-to-earth kind of faith in our Interview and Finding Faith sections. Try doing something practical for yourself or others in our Steps of Faith pages, which have suggestions for giving to others and making a difference to your world. Join our Community Board for online talk and discussion about the issues which face us all today. |
