Watch this video. It's an amazing, satiric view of our world and our priorities.
Peace,
Matt

Sad, but true. The tremendous wealth gap is always (for me) one of the hardest parts about missions, especially international ones. The price of my iPhone could have sponsored a staff member at YWAM Arusha for a full year. A year, for a phone. Something's just not right in that picture.
Matt,
I appreciate you linking to my site & the video on Teenage Affluenza. It really is an important issue that we need to address. Are you aware of the initial videos Affluenza & Escape from Affluenza that this concept is based on? You can check them out at the the Alternatives for Simple Living website www.simpleliving.org
