Uniquely among the topics we've addressed so far in this series, wealth and accumulation has been an issue that humans have struggled with for all of history. There's nothing new here. There are many biblical examples of what it looks like to block, accept and over-accept into the wider story of God, throughout the Old Testament and also through the words of our Lord himself.

The fact that it is still considered an issue is suggestive of how pervasive and insidious this narrative and its givens are in our culture, and how incredibly difficult it is to separate ourselves from it. We may think that we are not just accepting (prosperity gospel!) or blocking (all materialism is evil!), but how are we actually living our lives? What daily habits are we participating in that are forming us and our actions in the world?

As Fr Yuri and Fr Geoffrey look at wealth through the lens of narrative theology, we see how if we move to over-accept in the way Christ teaches us, questioning the givens and re-defining wealth, we will transform our perspective and focus and ultimately orient ourselves according to the Kingdom.
