consumer to steward.

Augustine said that the way to resist is not just to stand up against the onslaught of advertising - the way to resist is to learn a new set of desires.

The problem does not lie in the spending, but in the wanting.

We have to drop down into the level of the soul and recognize that long before anything is paid for, it is wanted.

And so the process of moving from consumer to steward is the process of rewiring the desires that drive the disciple.
