We’ve learned a lot about consumerism so far. Notably, its three tenets, 1. Satisfaction Can Be Purchased 2. Purchasing Power is Found in Systems 3. System Participation Demands Our Identity

3 Demands of Consumers:

1. I must get what I want NOW. (DoorDash, everything!)

Takeaway: Consumers have demands because they believe the product will satisfy.

Action Step: Consider the demands you are making on your faith community. Ask the question are you a consumer or an stakeholder in your local church? (Understanding without changing never leads to growth.)

Romans 5:8
