the Gospel is not the American dream

Stetzer just responded to a comment about the “American dream” and I think he’s right on talking about how the American dream is one of the biggest hinderer to missions. I think that’s very true and it’s a good point to make to say that the Gospel and the American dream or the Western Way IS NOT inherently synonymous with the Gospel message of Jesus Christ. Of course, it’s important to define the “American dream” or the “Western Way” but most of us pretty much know that climbing the ladder mentality and definition of success that thrives here in America.
