If we pay attention to the culture we are living in, we can see that hyper-consumerism is something we’ve received and plays into a lot of our lives, including our faith all too often. Lo Alaman presents some questions that are well worth asking ourselves: are we attributing promises to God that He never made? Is it because he has more contentment and fulfilment in mind for us? Scripture references: Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43 Proverbs 30:8 John 15:1-10

Lo Alaman is a poet, an artist and a founder of Urban Hymnal, a creative collective aiming to foster deep connections among believers and with God through the power of story. Lo lives in Houston Texas with his wife and 2 children Emmy & Mav.
