Minimalism is a strategy to manage our material possessions. It’s not the only strategy, nor is it necessarily the best, but it is a way we can fulfill our duties as stewards of what God blesses us with. However, this approach is a little bit misunderstood at times. In this episode, we’ll discuss four myths around minimalism:

1. I might need (this thing) later
2. I’ve already spent too much money on (this thing)
3. As long as I have room for (this thing) it’s okay to keep it
4. I’m too sentimental to be a minimalist
