Today, we are pleased to present the final podcast in our series centered around James K.A. Smith’s thesis that our habits and practices shape our hearts. Last week, Amy Sherman and Jason Myhre dove deeper into the relevancy of this idea to our cultural practices in the world of investing. But you may be wondering how it impacts your own life.
In today’s article, Dr. Amy Sherman takes a look at a number of common modern day financial behaviors and their subsequent effects on our heart. What is the spiritual impact of constant market-monitoring? What about the pursuit of profit above all else? After exploring the ways these cultural financial liturgies can shape the human heart, Amy offers up some alternative practices: counter-formational activities that depart from the world’s patterns and direct our hearts toward the ways of God instead.
