A Simple House: I mean, it's in our name.

Living simply is a core aspect of what we do (and what we're called to do as Christians). But the concept is unclear and hard to do. What is true simple living?

In this episode:
• The non-Christian ideas of "simple living" and what they're missing
• What you NEED to get rid of
• Simply put: how to live simply
• The value of your time vs. your hobbies
• How your laundry (yes, your laundry) could be robbing you

A Simple House is a Catholic ministry that serves project and Section 8 neighborhoods in southeast Washington, DC and Kansas City, MO. Our Catholic missionary work involves meeting people in their neighborhoods and in their homes. Missionaries strive to meet the material and spiritual needs of the poor. While missionaries serve at A Simple House, they live a simple religious life. Each missionary attends daily Mass, says morning and evening prayer from the Catholic Church's Liturgy of the Hours, and makes time for personal prayer and scripture study.
