In this episode we discuss Preachers N Sneakers, a controversial platform that displays some the expensive items that preachers and spiritual leaders wear. This is really a bridge to talk about a more relevant topic, materialism. Materialism is defined as: a tendency to consider material possessions and physical comfort as more important than spiritual values.

Yeah, to another episode of a Christian podcast. I'm your host, Kevin Wilson. Before we get into the episode as always, I want to give a huge shout out to each and every person that supports me through patriarchy for those that don't know, patron is an app and a platform in which people can financially support their favorite content creators.

Again, thank you a Christian podcast would not be the same without you. Now, in this episode, we dive into the topic of materialism. Now the episode is titled preachers and sneaker, but I don't want us to get stuck so much on the idea of preachers and sneakers, which if you're not familiar will make sense once we happen to the episode, but I really want us to focus more so on the overall topic, which is materialism and materialism.

When you first hear it, it sounds bigger than it is right. But real quick, I'll just define it, which is materialism is a tendency to consider material possessions and physical comfort as more important than spiritual values. So to summarize that and make it relevant to the Christian faith, loving things more than you love God more than you love Jesus.

And so I just wanted to kind of set that stage and yeah. No fixed those parameters before we happen. Today's episode. So whatever you're doing, wherever you're at, maybe you're driving, maybe you're cleaning up. Maybe you're working out, whatever it may be. My hope is that you enjoy this episode.

That were very expensive shoes and clothing. Right. So it's, you know, create a lot of controversy. I, some people are like, how dare these pastors wear, you know, all this expensive stuff, because it's specific.

Yeah. Why are you it, you know what I'm saying? The pastor Mike Todd's, uh, pastor Steven Furtick, like, you know, Um, and clothing, all that stuff. Right. And so other people are like, that's what they want to do, what they believe. That's what, right. So it's this big, like thing is, it is a pretty big platform right now.

Yeah. Um, but my question is, is it wrong for, and we'll talk more about it. We'll start off with kind of preachers, but then we'll get into, you know, more general for the everyday person. Um, but is it wrong for preachers to wear. Very specific, very expensive clothing. 

Yeah. I want to go first. Um, I don't think it's wrong that, um, at all, um, I think he's more so, um, that's the fruits of their labor and like you said, like that's what they can like if that's w
