Practical, scripture based, loved it

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

A simple practical book, scripture-based, really helped me to get my mind around how much I really am truly brainwashed by media telling me I need to consume, when I realized after reading this book that it's really not what I want .... what I really want is what she shares in this book, which is to be declutter, simplify life surrounded with family and love and peace and contentment and freedom .... STOP shopping, STOP collecting.... start living.
