Material or Spiritual Worldview?

Recently (May 24-26) I was blessed to present at the Capital Forum on Global Missions in DC. It was a great experience to be with many missionaries from the Dominican Republic, Swaziland, Scotland and other places.

I was moved to speak about how we as North American Christians view our world. If you look at our recent history, I think it speaks volumes about how we view the world. We are moved when a disaster destroys material goods but not when a spiritual disaster strikes. I fear we are more North American than Christian.

Jr Sheets of Peterhead, Scotland transcribed some of what I said and elaborated on it in his own blog posts. Here are links you might check out:
