In The Culturally Savvy Christian—his incisive critique of contemporary culture and religion—Dick Staub concludes that though it is influential, American popular culture is generally superficial (diversionary, mindless, and celebrity-driven) spiritually delusional (moralistic, therapeutic, and deistic) and soulless (sustained not by art, craft, and ideas, but by the mad pursuit of profit—propped up by marketing and technology). Similarly American Christianity has devolved into its own mindless, diversionary, and celebrity-driven superficiality. Because humans are created in God's image with spiritual, intellectual, creative, moral, and relational capacities, we long for more, yet the true seeker faces the lose-lose alternatives of a soul-numbing culture and a vacuous Christianity-lite. The renaissance we need in both faith and culture will originate in a deep spiritual renewal that restores God's image in us and creates a new breed of culturally savvy, thoughtful creatives who rekindle the spiritual, intellectual, and creative legacy of Christians as enrichers of culture.

Excerpts 1) I figured that it was either that I have not quite understood the underlying principles of giving (sowing and reaping) as administered in the church by some ministers of the word of God, or that those ministers are without full understanding of the doctrines of giving and the underlying principles of sowing and reaping as laid out in the bible. And so, lack of sufficient understanding in this doctrine leads them to distort and overstretch the truth of the word of God in the area of ... 2) Giving however, takes the dimension of financial support to the church because the church also is run as an organization, having to deal with As can be imagined with any other business effort, the churches these days have advanced into developing new products embellished and styled in the manner of a vehicle for the preaching of the gospel to reach the yet unreached parts of the world. Churches run schools and These are products and brands having all the trappings of an astute business effort. We should not quarrel with any of these for whatever underlying ... What we should quarrel with is that most members have not prospered for whatever reason according to what is preached to them. And the reason without mincing words I intend to deal with some of those principles next. 3) The angel Michael could not despise dominions; neither could he speak evil of dignitaries while he contended with the Devil disputing over the body of Moses. His option was also to invoke a higher authority where-in he said, The Lord to be able to claim the body of Moses. Here, Michael needed the authority of Jesus Christ (The Lord) to dislodge Satan to lay claim over the body of Moses.

What if taxi drivers in New York City or rickshaw operators in Bangalore could start a worker-owned and-operated alternative to Uber with stable hourly wages? Platform cooperatives reimagine a world where domestic workers can double their income by establishing their own platform—an internet where platforms such as Twitch, Twitter, and Roblox were owned by their streamers, users, and creators. What if small fishing communities in Mexico or farmers in Kerala had the power to determine what data they collected about their work and how they utilized that data? Platform cooperatives are not a figment of the utopian imagination, but rather a reality that is transforming industries today. Collectives that leverage technology offer an urgent and practical solution to shift how businesses are owned and controlled, allowing workers to make decisions together. In this book, researcher and activist Trebor Scholz explores how these new forms of business, powered by peer principles, are paving the way for a more equitable economy that benefits everyone. Own This! sets out a program that could change the ways we live, work, and organize.
