This project was motivated by the lack of congruence between the profession of faith and lifestyle of a typical mainline Christian. The gospel of Luke records that first century hearers of the gospel altered their relationship with possessions by either abandoning or sharing them with others in need. When Jesus instructed his disciples to take nothing for their missionary journey he expected that their radical dependence on God for necessities would speak as loudly as their words. Twenty-five participants were asked to study Luke/Acts on this subject and a paper on simplicity as a practical application of Jesus' teaching to the 1990s. After a two-month period written reports from each participant were summarized in the conclusion of the dissertation. The results indicated a heightened awareness of the proper place of possessions in their lives and that Jesus' teachings affected them by causing a change of attitude and/or behaviour.
