1KHO 820: Never Have Human Beings Owned as Much as We Do Today | Joshua Becker, Uncluttered Faith
6/7/202657 min
Never have human beings owned as much as we do today and so many of us feel overwhelmed, distracted, anxious, and stretched thin. In this powerful return conversation, Joshua Becker joins Ginny Yurich to explore why the pursuit of more often leaves us with less of what matters most. Drawing from his book Uncluttered Faith, Joshua shares how owning less can lead to deeper relationships, stronger faith, greater generosity, more time with the people you love, and a life marked by purpose instead of accumulation. From four televisions becoming one to discovering that the things we chase rarely deliver what they promise, this episode is an invitation to step off the treadmill of consumerism and reclaim the life waiting on the other side.
