- Abstract
- With few exceptions Americans seek what has come to be known as the American dream. When people are strongly committed to pursuing this dream and at the same time seek to pattern their lives according to the principles of Christianity, they experience some degree of dissonance -- tension and conflict which is often unresolvable. This project explores dissonance as a phenomenon through a case study of one man and uses a series of lived moments. Pursuing the American dream and following Jesus Christ, though difficult, are not necessarily antithetical. However, 'successful' resolution depends upon the religious maturity of the individual.
