Named One of the 50 Best Spiritual Books of 2020 by
Spirituality & Practice
What is materiality?
Jesus practiced materiality when he healed the bodies of the sick, proclaimed Jubilee to the poor, and fed the five thousand. He practiced materiality over materialism. In
Materiality as Resistance
, Walter Brueggemann defines
materiality
as the
use
of the material aspects of the Christian faith, as opposed to
materialism
, which places possessions and physical comfort
over
spiritual values. In this concise volume, Brueggemann lays out how we as Christians may reengage our materiality for the common good. How does materiality inform our faith when it comes to food, money, the body, time, and place? How does it force us to act? Likewise, how is the church obligated to use its time, money, abundance of food, the care and use of our bodies, observance of Sabbath, and stewardship of our world and those with whom we share it? With a foreword from Jim Wallis,
serves as a manifesto of Walter Brueggemann's most important work and as an engaging call to action. It is suited for group or individual study.
