Living Between Worlds
Description
David Miller from our Taylors campus has spent years moving between radically different worlds: his home in Greenville, the lives of wealthy donors, and the extreme poverty and persecution experienced by children and pastors in South Asia. He shares with Scott and Whitney how living between worlds has challenged the way he thinks about wealth, generosity, justice, and even his own identity.
Key Points
- We all experience varying degrees of liminal spaces between worlds that can create disorientation and spiritual challenge.
- Wealth is relative: there is always someone incredibly richer than you and someone for whom your life looks incredibly rich.
- Guilt is not an adequate response when we witness poverty; a better response is reflection: How can I live justly and generously within the economic world that I actually inhabit?
