Wow, I just found a great site (and another book I want to read). It's called the Mustard Seed Association by Tom Sine, author of the book "Mustard Seed vs. McWorld." Below are some tidbits I found really interesting. (Thanks, John.)

Here's a comparison of the values inheirent in Modern Western Culture and the kingdom of God: Mustard Seed vs. McWorld

"What we have done is to inadvertently succumb to a dualistic model of faith and modern culture. In this dualism the living action of our faith through discipleship and stewardship are compartmentalized and subject to the governing force of modern culture. In spite of all the talk about Christ's lordship, everyone knows that the expectations of modern culture come first. Everyone knows that getting ahead in the job comes first. Getting ahead in the suburbs comes first. Getting the kids off to their activities comes first. And we, as Christians, tend to make decisions in these areas pretty much like everyone else does, based on our income, our professions, and our social status." - A Dualistic Life: Who Arranges the Furniture of Our Lives?


There is lots to mine here.
