nerdy sociological things
sip thoughts #1
by liv on Oct.26, 2009, under nerdy sociological things, what i'm learning
i’ve been working–pretty diligently, might i add– on my senior thesis, this past weekend. trying to finish up some of the research before i go back and get more. the never ending cycle.
wanted to share some insights/thoughts on what i am reading through, currently. for the time being, i am working through Skye Jethani’s “The Divine Commodity.” I recommend it as it portrays where our culture is and how it does, and doesn’t, speak to the claims that Christ has called of those who say they “follow” Him.
enjoy!

ME: “I just paid $5 for a grande pumpkin spiced latte with soy [at starbucks]. I paid $3 for my soy latte at Niedlov’s earlier [local shop].”
Michelle: “You know what that is? McDonaldization.”
ME: “I know. Dang.”
