Simplicity, Frugality and Poverty

February 11, 1981

Rolling Hills Covenant Church

This is session #5 of an 11-part series called “The Disciple, the Disciplines and the Triumphant Life.”

Tim, I’m working on recreating the handout. I think it’s just the list of session topics with the scriptures for study.

DEFINITIONS

Simplicity: A lack of disjointed complexity in intention and will.

Frugality: Consuming only what is necessary.

Poverty: Absence of resources.

Simplicity and frugality are commands of the scripture. Poverty is not.
