HRG 1.3 Do people really want anything more? (Keith Howard)

3. Based on study of Dave Gibbons, The Monkey and the Fish.

“...what many people around the world see is a version of Christianity created in our own cultural image, a Christianity with diminishing power and influence and filled with a lot of pride, self-centeredness, and wrongheaded metrics. Being part of the Western cultural machine, churches tend to gravitate towards the gods of pragmatism, materialism, and consumerism.... The global village is longing for something deeper.” (p. 22)

Do you think this is true?
