WE ARE A PEOPLE OF PRIVILEGE AND ENTITLEMENT. WE ARE AMONG THE HAVES---WE HAVE EDUCATION, CONNECTIONS, POWER, AND WEALTH. TOO OFTEN WE ARE INDULGENT AND SELF-SUFFICIENT CONSUMERS. WE SPEAK OF OUR ACHIEVEMENTS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS. SOMETIMES WE OFFER GOD LITURGIES OF DISREGARD, LITANIES OF SELVES MADE TOO BIG. BUT WE HEAR FAINT REMINDERS OF A BETTER WAY.
Prayers for a Privileged People, Walter Brueggemann
