In a post-modern culture it is difficult to say that something is true, but what of authenticity? This TED talk by Joseph Pine is quite illuminating on the topic. According to the speaker, consumerism has moved from Commodities to Goods to Services to (now) Experiences. Interesting stuff.
I’ll be thinking about this one today. Specifically, how does this affect the church? My career? My investments?
Do the social mediums of Facebook, Twitter, et. al., contribute to or meet our need for authentic interaction?
