While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very life we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Ratings and reviews

This book is misleading. It is promoted as a self-help guide to minimalism but in reality is a sermon from the author attempting to justify minimalism as being a teaching of j3sus using biblical examples(which contradict each other several times). I have nothing against faith-based books but for those who are not of the Christian faith this book comes across way too preachy and is not what I expected at all after reading the description.
