by Jen Hatmaker

Disturbed by her family's comfortableness with American excess, Hatmaker writes with humor and depth about their unique social and spiritual decision to reduce material possessions and distractions in order to connect with God. Over seven months, she identified seven areas of excess, and made seven simple choices to fight back against the modern-day diseases of greed, materialism, and overindulgence.
